Strathdon Community is a residential aged care facility operated by Uniting AgeWell, situated in the heart of Forest Hill, Victoria, close to parks, public transport, and Davy Lane Reserve. Run by a not-for-profit organisation of the Uniting Church in Australia, it offers residential, dementia, palliative, and respite care with an individualised, person-centred approach guided by the Uniting AgeWell Dementia Framework. Registered nurses are on-site 24 hours a day, supported by allied health professionals including physiotherapists, speech therapists, podiatrists, dietitians, social workers, and visiting dentists. The community features an on-site café and shop with alfresco dining, welcoming outdoor spaces with a barbecue area, and sensory gardens for residents living with dementia.

Care time delivered: 219 minutes per resident per day (target 219), of which 44 from a registered nurse.

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. "None current" means no action was recorded against this home in the Government's latest quarterly extract (May 2026).
