This small, 21-bed aged care facility in Barraba, NSW, provides "ageing in place" care for both high and low care residents. It aims for a safe, welcoming, and home-like atmosphere, with a focus on professional care and a broad recreational calendar. The facility was established in 1983 by the local community to ensure residents could remain close to family and friends, and it continues to be run by a not-for-profit volunteer board. All single rooms have an ensuite, a pleasant outlook, and were refurbished recently, with residents encouraged to personalise their space.

Compliance action The regulator (the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission) can take formal action when a home falls short of the standards — from a direction to improve, up to a Notice of Non-Compliance or sanctions.
