Description
Bambra House Nursing Home offers residential and respite care for people with advanced and complex nursing care needs including dementia residents.

BAMBRA HOUSE DOES NOT CHARGE ACCOMODATION PAYMENTS.

NEITHER REFUNDABLE ACCOMODATION DEPOSITS (RAD's) NOR DAILY ACCOMODATION PAYMENTS (DAP's) ARE REQUIRED.

CONSESSIONAL RESIDENTS ALWAYS WELCOME FOR PERMANENT CARE

We offer both single and shared rooms and many of our residents welcome the additional companionship of a shared room.

We are a small specialised boutique aged care residential home of 30 beds that is owned and managed by Registered Nurses who are experienced in Aged Care. The home has Registered Nurses on duty at the premises 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Our dedicated staff provide the highest quality individual nursing care for our residents with a focus on optimising their independence and contentment.

We also offer a wonderful lifestyle programme that is designed to meet each resident's individual requirements.

Bambra House is located in an historic heritage-listed Edwardian building within an established traditional garden close to public transport (buses, trams and trains), shops and Caulfield Park. We have deliberately not created a large (and expensive) hotel-style facility but have retained our original Edwardian building so we are affordable and can provide an environment that is like a real home for our residents.

The building is a secure home allowing residents with dementia to move freely through the home, gardens and our undercover patio areas.

One of the great advantages of being a small aged care home with a stable and committed staff is that residents can become familiar with and get to know the staff well. The staff at Bambra House develop strong bonds with the residents. Familiar faces every day provide a positive contribution to improving resident's sense of well-being.
Bambra House offers an excellent standard of individual care for residents with specific emphasis on preventative, therapeutic and rehabilitative care to maximize each resident's potential for independence, health, wellbeing and contentment.

At Bambra House we have a nursing focused on-site Management team whose first priority is maintaining the highest standard of quality care. Our Management team, includes the Director of Nursing, the Care Co-ordinator and Quality Co-ordinator and all are highly experienced in residential aged care and qualified Registered Nurses.

In addition to the Management team there is always a Registered Nurse in charge and on duty at the facility 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Bambra House prides itself on having one of the highest nurse to resident ratios with a minimum of 1 nurse for every 5 residents on morning shifts, a minimum of 1 nurse for every 7.5 residents on evening shifts and a minimum of 1 nurse per 15 residents overnight.

In addition to the nursing care staff on duty our daily roster includes: Activities Co-ordinator, Activities Assistant (several days), On-site Chef, Domestic (kitchen hand), Laundry person, Cleaner & Maintenance officer.

Our philosophy is to provide a safe, secure and comfortable homelike environment where residents are provided the highest quality care and service to maintain their quality of life. Our residents are treated with dignity, having their privacy of person and belongings respected and their individual needs considered at all times while maintaining their confidentiality.
