| Info: | Situated in the semi rural suburb of St Leonards this gracious facility provides exceptional care for 40 High Care and 58 Low Care residents. Mt Esk offers an attractive, sunny position with pleasant semi-rural vistas, close to shops and transport and a range of accommodation most with ensuite facilities. This mix of high and low care means that couples with differing care needs can be accommodated on the one site. Ageing in place means that security of tenure at the same facility is assured even when care needs change. The values and ethos of Mt Esk are traditional, reflecting a gentle caring approach for those who can no longer live in their own home. There is a variety of accommodation to meet your preferred needs with spacious lounge and dining areas as well as a large function area known for varied activities organised by dedicated Leisure and Activities Staff. Visiting podiatrists and physiotherapists are available and the regular hairdresser is a valued part of the team. There is quite and solace in the peaceful chapel with its beautiful stained glass windows . Regular Church services are held for several denominations and the support of a pastoral carer is readily to hand. There is a close involvement with the adjacent Larminenier school through organised visits and concerts as well as visits at special times of the year. Personal attention is a feature of this unique traditional aged care facility. Mount Esk has operated since July 2002 under the stewardship of Southern Cross Care (Tas.) Inc and was formally operated by the sisters of Nazareth. |
