Since opening its doors in January, Romsey Community Aged Care has quickly become a valued part of the local landscape, offering dignified, person-centred care in a warm and welcoming environment.
After months of anticipation, community members have seen the transformation of a long-awaited development into a state-of-the-art home that fills a vital gap in regional aged care services.
The purpose-built facility features 125 private rooms, each complete with its own ensuite and outdoor access, designed to promote both comfort and independence.
Thoughtfully designed communal spaces, including multiple lounge areas, foster a genuine sense of home and belonging.
Life at Romsey is vibrant and engaging.
From movie nights in the cinema room and activities in the men’s shed to a coffee in the café, there’s something to suit every interest.
Residents can express their creativity in the craft room, unwind in the piano lounge, or join in on regular bus outings and community events.
Romsey offers a full spectrum of care services, including 24/7 nursing care, permanent and respite care along with specialist dementia support.
A dedicated memory support wing ensures tailored attention, while the wellness studio and hair salon allow residents to access everyday comforts without leaving the home.
Beyond care, Romsey has brought with it meaningful economic benefits.
The home has generated new employment opportunities across healthcare, administration, hospitality, and support services, providing a welcome boost to the local economy and enriching the broader community.
“The locals have really embraced us, which just shows how needed this service is,” client services executive general manager Martin Jones said.
“Families no longer need to send loved one’s hours away. They can receive quality care close to home and community.”
Romsey Community Aged Care stands as a milestone for the region, ensuring that older Australians can age in place with dignity, support, and connection.
