My mother has recently spent some time here in respite. My father had stayed here some years ago so that experience was what made us return. The staff are very warm and friendly, we were made very welcome upon arrival. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. The building is very well cared for and we like the central layout with views of the gardens throughout. Lots of sunny and shaded areas to relax in and quiet corners to read or watch TV. My mother had a refurbished room/en-suite which she was very impressed with. She has indicated that she would be happy to stay here again. Abi, the Customer Support Manager assisted me regarding the documentation required and was always available if I had a question regarding same. This made quite a stressful and complex situation much easier to deal with. Thank you to all involved.
My Mum says Mornington Bay Care Community is very, very good. Staff are caring, coming in to have a talk and give a hug. They offer help and are always respectful. There are always meals to choose from, some enjoyed more than others and favourites. Participating in exercise classes, musical performances, chatting to other residents and staff are all enjoyable pastimes. The facilities are very good and home like. The room is comfortable and a personal space to relax in. My own observations are that staff do an amazing job in providing assistance as needed. They show care and respect and do their best to maintain my Mum's dignity. She enjoys having a laugh with them at times. Mornington Bay Care is a pleasant place to walk into with garden views out many windows. There are furnished areas for the residents to relax as well as areas for activities.
Both our parents have had the incredible good fortune to be looked after by the truly extraordinary team at Mornington Bay. I cannot speak highly enough. The facilities are immaculate, Mum and Dad have been so well cared for and the family is always kept up to date. Nursing staff and senior management are just brilliant. The whole family honestly feels blessed that we found this place. Don’t hesitate if you need this kind of support for a family member, you won’t regret it, best wishes.
We are delighted with how happy our father is at Mornington Bay Care Community. We instantly had a great feeling as soon as we walked through the door with its beautiful garden spaces, pet friendly atmosphere, reading and activity nooks, café and dedicated restaurant areas. With a personalised care approach, our dad’s story and history have helped influence his routine, connections and activities. His room is well appointed and spacious, and the staff are warm and caring.
Moving a parent into permanent aged care can be emotionally difficult and daunting at the same time. Abi and the team at Mornington Bay made the process so easy and made sure that dad's wellbeing was front and center at all times. The staff are amazing and dad just loves the place. Thanks Abi and team!
I wish to say that if anyone is considering placing a loved one in Mornington Bay, go for it. The staff are exceptional, very caring, very discreet. And they manage to handle very tricky situations with politeness and a determination to calm matters down. Highly recommendable. My partner wasn't there for very long, but the atmosphere and entertainment offered was terrific.
