A lovely resi care home for loved ones. The staff are great and genuinely care. I've been impressed with this place for many years.
My mother-in-law has been at Estia Parkside for nearly four years and she loves the friendly and caring atmosphere there. My wife and I have been consistently impressed with the very high standard of care from the dedicated nursing and admin staff. Highly recommended.
From Jan Pearson, I have a friend who is 100 years of age, currently at Parkside. The staff are wonderful with her, and when she had a medical episode they were swift to endure hospitalisation as required. Now she is back, the care is very professional, but also caring. The homely environment for many of the patients must be reassuring. I do feel that the room could do with an update, in particular a second rail in the wardrobe, to allow for slightly more hanging space, in order to keep clutter in rooms to a minimum. Having seen many residential care homes and having worked in hospital geriatric units, Estia does seem better than most.
My mother in law spent a wonderful 6 months here and I give Estia parkside the highest recommendation. As she shifted to later palliative stages the staff were just amazing, kind caring supportive. They attended her needs promptly and with compassion. Their communication was excellent. The staff couldn’t do enough for my mother in law. Special mention to nurse Naz she was just incredible. In her last moments staff were calm, gentle and provided superior end of life care. Due to palliative care she didn’t participate in many organised daily activities whilst there but I do know there many and were fun and engaging. Food was 8.5/10 cooked on site. Choosing care for family member is a difficult decision and I am so glad we chose Estia. I cannot recommend it high enough! Thank you to all the amazing staff at Estia parkside, you truly are the best .

Estia Parkside South Australia If you have a relative or friend in an Estia, you MUST check there monthly statements. I’ve just received my mother’s monthly statements and for March 2026 she is being charged $17,200 … that’s $573 per day, $4,000 per week. Last month she was invoiced ‘only’ $14,000 for February 2026 and when I queried that amount, technology was blamed and we ended up with a credit of $93.88. How can an organisation as big as Estia be so incompetent when it comes to financial management.
