CEO Message

Good Shepherd Aged Services embodies the principle that the highest standards in residential aged care depend upon recognising and critically appraising the expanding body of our knowledge and expertise. Indeed, detailed and appropriate evidence based procedures are an important part of that body of knowledge, providing benchmarks for our practice. Of course, our practices are underpinned by the application of our philosophy, mission and values. In doing so, we are seen to help enrich the lives of those we care for, to assist them to realise their potential, and to boost a sense of dignity and worth.

Good Shepherd Aged Services employees have the collective belief of continuously striving, to not only maintain excellence in resident care, but to also create opportunities for our residents to access community, whilst creating a vibrant environment. Good Shepherd Aged Services has been recognised nationally for its innovative programs, clinical excellence, and in particular our health and wellness program.

This website is intended as a guide to how we supply the highest possible quality of care to our residents, their relatives and representatives.
