The five ratings

Four measures make up the overall rating. The i beside each one explains what it covers.

Overall OverallOne rating combining the four below. Residents’ experience counts for about a third, compliance a little under a third, then staffing and quality measures. Good
Residents’ experience Residents’ experienceFrom face-to-face interviews with a sample of residents, who answer twelve questions about daily life in the home. Good
Compliance ComplianceSet by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission from regulatory decisions and audit findings, and updated as things change. A 1 or 2 here caps the overall rating at that level. Excellent
Staffing StaffingCompares the care minutes per resident per day the home delivered against the target set for that home, including registered nurse minutes. Improvement needed
Quality measures Quality measuresSeven clinical indicators the home reports each quarter — falls, pressure injuries, weight loss, restrictive practices and medication use. Good

Why the ratings are broken out

Most homes land in much the same place on the overall star: 69% hold four, and none holds fewer than three. The four measures above, and the detail below, are where homes actually differ from one another.

Staffing

Every home has a target for care minutes per resident per day, set for that home. This is what it reported delivering.

Total care minutes per day 204 target 210 -6 min
Registered nurse minutes 45 target 43 +2 min

What residents said

An independent surveyor interviewed residents here face to face in 2025. These are the shares who answered "always" or "most of the time" — 91% across all 12 questions.

Staff treat me with respect 100%
I feel safe here 100%
Staff are kind and caring 100%
I get the care I need 92%
Staff know what they are doing 88%
Staff follow up when I raise things 96%
Staff explain things to me 84%
I have a say in my daily activities 100%
I am encouraged to do things for myself 100%
This place is well run 84%
This place feels like home 88%
I like the food here 64%

The lowest-scoring answer is marked, because it is usually the one worth asking about on a visit.

Clinical quality measures

Compliance

The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission checks homes against the Quality Standards and sets this rating, updating it as things change.

Compliance rating Excellent

The Commission's stated reason: No current regulatory decisions and no Quality Standards grades recorded, whilst operating continuously for over 3 years.

Regulatory history

Notice of Non-Compliance. A formal notice that the home was not meeting one or more of the Quality Standards at the time. Applied July 2022 · Ended March 2023

This ended, and is here as history rather than a live concern. The rating above is the Commission's current view.
