One of there staff did a hit and run on my car in there white Kia Picanto so at least one staff isn’t good
I feel very safe here and am glad there is always someone close by. This is definitely my home. I’ve always had great meals here and am very glad to be here. I’d also like to mention that management have always been extremely helpful and the reason why I chose to be the president of the resident committee to give back to this lovely community
The staff here are great! I love drawing and colouring and the staff have given me sketching materials as parting gifts when some of them have left. I think it really shows how much they know about my interests and how much they think of me. I feel very loved here and have made lots of friends with the staff.
The Milne Family would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to ALL the staff that helped and looked after Doug we couldn't be happier. They always kept intouch with us and updated us on anything they did with Doug. The Staff are all friendly greeted us and made a fuss of Milly, Doug's Wife. All staff were very caring when Doug began Pallative Care and when he passed they were checking in with us to see if we were ok and need anything. Thank you from Milne Family
My father William (Doug) has been in the home for nearly a year. He has a new lease of life as they have so many activities that involved him. We find the staff friendly and preform their duties in a professional mannor . They welcome us when we arrive there. Staff is so obliging. They always inform us what is happening. Great to see the newsletters with all the photo's in it with the activity's they have done. Very happy with our choice Nambour Gardens Care Community.
I visit my father and had lunch here for his birthday. The staff went and made sure his day was great. I can see he is well cared for and happy. The food is fresh and always tasted great. Thank you
I have been most impressed with the care my wife has been getting from Opal Nambour Gardens. She first came as part of a temporary respite programme but she is now in permanent care. Never having been involved in such a process before I found it quite daunting. The staff, however, made the process a lot more understandable. There was a big change from respite to permanent care but again the staff were very helpful. Putting a loved one into care is traumatic and I can only thank the Nambour staff from helping me through this difficult time.
I came to visit my uncles just after Christmas and was able to bring my dog too, which they both enjoyed. Both of them are very happy there and thank you for the kind staff looking after them love
