Calvary St Francis Retirement Community

Calvary St Francis is a beautifully maintained residential aged care home located in a quiet and tranquil bush setting in Lake Macquarie. Inspired by the work of founders who began over 135 years ago, Calvary places care and compassion at its heart, aiming to create a safe, friendly and encouraging environment for residents. Permanent aged care is supported by professional nursing staff operating round the clock and visits from specialist clinicians. The experienced team takes the time to get to know each resident, understanding medical concerns and meeting physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs. The home is a single level residence with single occupancy bedrooms, each with a private ensuite, and residents can relax in extensive grounds or gather in light-filled communal living spaces. A dedicated lifestyle team runs weekly active social calendars with crafts, cooking, light exercise, musical therapy, regular bus trips, social outings and onsite entertainment. A Memory Support Unit provides specialised, home-like care for people living with memory loss such as Alzheimer's or dementia. Onsite amenities include a hair and treatment salon and a chapel/prayer room offering a sanctuary for reflection and a sense of community through shared faith.
