We wish to thank all staff from management to maintenance, For the care and support you showed our dad. Estia Health in Melton Sth is such a warm, welcoming home the care provided to the residents goes above and beyond what we expected. The food was plentiful and delicious, activities kept all residents entertained. If anyone was looking for residential care for their loved ones they should consider Estia Melton Sth.
The staff are lovely at Estia.
Very friendly, caring and professional staff made the process of admitting my wife to the Memory Support Unit very smooth and "painless". The staff there have a very caring, relaxed and friendly manner and their attitude is a reflection of the culture of Estia Health, Melton South. My family feel reassured that my wife is receiving the best level of care she could get. Well done to all.
My father was ill in hospital for a long time and not eating. When the social worker got me in contact with Estia Health. They helped with the paperwork and transition. My dad was hesitant at first but they help him get healthy with fresh meals daily, and full time care. I couldn't afford going to hosiptial daily; it was convenient to be close to work and home. My father died but I'm so grateful for all the assistance with paperwork. I wish I could help with getting more staff to assist in your facility. Let me know what I can do. Thank you.

Rated 5 out of 5.
Both parents are receiving very good care in Estia. My Mum never stops telling me how wonderful and kind the staff are, and how loved she feels. The ambience is very homely and nice and bright inside. Lovely gardens and courtyards. Always plenty of activities being run to keep the residents engaged. Staff are always friendly and happy. Kept very clean and always smells fresh. Given the trauma that can come with putting parents into aged care, I have found the whole process with Estia to be very comforting and easy. They have brought me great peace of mind that my loved ones are safe and well cared for.
