Nice place nice people you feel harmony inside the nursing home
Since our mother moved into GG hostel she has received the best care. The staff are so caring and show love and compassion at all times. The size of the hostel is small enough to still give a homely feel. The food is amazing, tasty and nutritious. There are so many snack stations dotted throughout the complex. None of the residents could ever go hungry. There are activities which residents can join in if they wish. Overall, I am extremely pleased to know that Mum is taken well care of and is happy to be there.
Gumleigh Gardens Hostel is a true gem in the realm of assisted aged care living. With a range of services, including high care and low care, it provides a comfortable, welcoming environment for elderly residents. The lovely courtyard gardens and tranquil water features create a peaceful atmosphere, while shared and beautiful lounge areas cater to different preferences. The staff at Gumleigh Gardens are exceptional, epitomizing professionalism and compassion. Shantell, who handles administration, is efficient and courteous. RNs Talia and Nina stand out for their unwavering dedication to residents' well-being. Talia, in particular, possesses a soothing and caring demeanor, making residents feel at ease. Her commitment to providing personalized care and her warm interactions truly set her apart. Gumleigh Gardens is fortunate to have such a dedicated team.
I am impressed with the care and efforts made by all associated with GUMLIEGH Gardens and their residents speak very highly of the environment in which they live.
