We are very amazed with the great facilities and staff at Estia my father Ian was in there for some time, I would like to say thanks to all involved with looking after him while he was there for his last days, the Stand out staff were Emma - Kate with her beautiful smile and placid personality as you walk in the door, also Tammy what a amazing lady with personality to make anyone’s day her attention to my father was over the top she joked and had him smiling very time she was in the room, even in one incident when dad had fallen, she would get on the floor and comfort him, both these ladies stood out for me and my family great communication all the time, i would recommend Estia in Thurgoona to anyone who needs there love ones to have good care, thanks again ladies hats off to you both 😘

My mother has been a resident of Estia Albury for just over two years and in that time she has celebrated her 100th birthday. Everyone made a effort to make her day extra special, the chef went out of her way to make a beautiful carrot cake, Mum’s favourite and as always Tammy and her team were fantastic Tracey’s arrival at the end of last year has in my opinion, made a huge difference, she is a massive asset, she is willing to listen and act quickly.
Our Mum has transitioned into a nursing home with much hesitation at first BUT the staff at Estia Thurgoona have been the most supportive, kind and friendly staff. We are greatly appreciative for all you have done to make mum's transition smooth. Sally Hart
