The Forrest Centre is a not-for-profit aged care provider established in 1985, operating in Wagga Wagga and the broader Riverina region of NSW. It runs two residential facilities — Mary Potter Nursing Home (80 private single rooms with ensuites) and Loreto Home of Compassion (76 private single rooms with shared ensuites) — along with a dedicated 10-bed palliative care hospice and at-home care services across Wagga Wagga, Griffith, Leeton, Narrandera, Tumbarumba, and Tumut. Both residential facilities feature dedicated dementia units (Shalom Place at Mary Potter with 20 beds; Bethany Place at Loreto with 10 beds), on-site chapels, hairdressing salons, physiotherapy programmes, and a range of social activities. Reflecting its Christian heritage, the organisation provides regular Catholic and Anglican services and daily pastoral care across all facilities. As a registered charity independent of corporate pressures, The Forrest Centre focuses on compassionate, holistic, and personalised care addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of residents.
