Aged Care Home's description:

At Whiddon Redhead, we offer you a residential care service that reflects and respects your sense of independence and enjoyment. Whether you just want the reassurance of having help on hand if you need it, or you require more specialised care, Whiddon will work in close partnership with you and your family to create the care plan that’s right for you.

You’ll find the coastal town of Redhead in the Hunter region of NSW, just a short drive from Newcastle. Our home is set in beautiful gardens with panoramic views of the coastline and surrounding native bush.

We are only 300 metres away from the sea, so many of our rooms and shared areas have stunning sea views and we often spot whales.

Offering 151 fully-furnished private and companion rooms, many with ensuite bathrooms, we are also co-located with our independent living village and community care centre, forming a close-knit aged care community.
