My father lived at Brimlea Banksia Aged Care for 5 years by choice. He was always happy to be here and well looked after by the nursing and administration staff. In particular Angela and Kyriaki who showed great care and empathy towards him. I will always be grateful for their care and support over the years. Thank you all.

We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care our loved one receives here, at Brimlea. The staff are kind, compassionate, and always willing to go the extra mile. The facility is clean, welcoming and has a warm, family-like atmosphere. It's reassuring to know our loved one is safe, comfortable and treated with dignity and respect. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care.

Couldn’t have asked for better care for my grandmother in her last days. Wonderful team. Took amazing care of her for 2 years. Thank you all so much.

Thank you to an amazing team of professional, caring people. I'd like to thank John and his great team for assisting me in making a decision for placing my mother in their care.

One of the worst aged care facilities I’ve ever seen. The rooms lack privacy, with two residents sharing one room and the same bathroom. Infection prevention and control measures are inadequate, and the quality manager is very rude. Overall, I had a very negative experience and did not like this aged care at all.

Bit distressing when you see a staff member Ram a wheelchair into the residence ankles also leave residents unattended why they use residents toilets to use the phone or toilet.
