About

John Curtin is responsive community owned non-profit Home providing permanent and respite care to older citizens. It was developed through the vision of the people of Creswick and surrounding districts in recognising a need for residential aged care in the area. John Curtin is set in beautiful cottage gardens, in the delightful rural town of Creswick, only 20 minutes drive from the large regional city of Ballarat and the tourist centre of Daylesford. We offer residential and respite care that can be tailored to meet your, or your loved-one's, specific needs and aspirations. Our services actively support your right to lifestyle choices and independence. The John Curtin Memorial Hostel (now John Curtin Aged Care) was named after John Curtin, Prime Minister of Australia from 1941 to 1945, who was born in Creswick. The building's foundation stone was laid on the sixth of January 1985 which would have been John Curtin's 100th birthday.
