Time and consideration has been given to the design and development of Margery Cole Residential Aged Care, ensuring the facility is suited to the care and social needs of residents.
Margery Cole currently has accommodation for 104 residents. Our modern accommodation sits across four houses, Grevillia, Banksia, Waratah and Laurel. We have choice of four room types in different sizes, all of which are private and feature en-suites.
Meals are served in our comfortable dining rooms, which are light and bright with garden views. Lounge areas feature fabric covered chairs and sofas. Residents can enjoy listening to music, watching their favourite program on our large screen television, or simply relaxing beside our feature fireplace.
Residents can also spend time in the courtyard garden areas, or undercover porches well suited for all weather. An additional large activity space is also available to all residents. Our pool table is a popular feature and regular entertainment and activities are organised in this space. We also have a hairdressing service that has specialist hairdressing chairs, washers and driers for that touch of glamour.
