Anglicare Melva McDonald Lodge

This aged care home in Rooty Hill provides residential care with a strong emphasis on community and social connection. Residents enjoy a warm atmosphere, often gathering at Potters Cafe or participating in resident-led activities like 'walk and talk' groups and knitting for charity. The care approach is person-centred, guided by Anglicare's Rhythm of Life® model, and spiritual support is available through a Chaplain. Mealtimes are a social event with choices, and residents can even join a food focus group to contribute to menu planning. The facility aims to provide a supportive and friendly environment where residents feel safe and respected.
