Vermont Views Care Community

I had the absolute pleasure of attending the PCA Jumpstart training, and I can genuinely say it was one of the most valuable and enriching learning experiences I’ve had. The session was incredibly well-structured, practical, and thoughtfully delivered, making it both engaging and highly educational. Emma was truly exceptional. Her warmth, patience, and genuine passion for supporting others shone through in every interaction. She created such a welcoming and comfortable environment where no question ever felt too small, and her approachability made it so easy to learn and grow in confidence. You can really tell how much she cares about each individual’s development. I walked away not only with stronger knowledge and skills, but also feeling inspired and supported. I’m so grateful for the time and effort Emma put into making this experience so meaningful. I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend this training to anyone considering it.

3 day pca jumpstart training was highly beneficial and educational. definitely recommend, Emma was very helpful and approachable.

Before choosing this place visit early unannounced to learn the truth. Ask the residents about the food. Smell the hygiene. They don't cut nails, trim hair, or clean ears. It's ok for them to sit in excrement for an hour! Toilets are filthy and broken. Place looks nice on the surface but ultimately it's a money making machine. Very rigid rules and will only speak to one family member.

Hi My mum has been at this facility for a number of years and this place is outstanding in the level of care she receives .The Staff always communicate with me about My Mums care needs. I definitely recommend This aged care home. Also Paula in reception has such a friendly helpful nature Thankyou for continuing to care for Mum.

Livingstone Gardens is a beautiful place to live and work! Beautifully appointed spacious rooms with large outdoor spaces - both private and communal. A leisurely minutes walk to local shops and the tram line ensures easy access to the community. The management team has nearly 100 years nursing experience. The care team are kind, compassionate and care! Tai chi, Physio therapy, men’s shed, arts, resident run groups. a salon and nail studio that would make local business’ jealous. I could go on for ever! Highly recommend :)

My mother and I are at the beginning of our aged care journey and yes there have been lots of issues and concerns so far ……and plenty more to come I have no doubt…. but I want to put on record the appreciation I have for the professional team operating at Livingstone Gardens…. A culture of genuine respect for residents and their families has been well established in a positive, caring community atmosphere and it makes such a difference! It is great to see it in action as well as words! Issues and concerns have been taken seriously when raised and action taken where necessary and /or possible My final comment is for the first person you meet when arriving at Livingstone Gardens who represents so admirably all of positive aspects of mum’s new home, who has made us feel so welcome and helped us, the newcomers ,in a hundred different ways .

I had a good experience facilitating students here. I met with many staff working there and they always have smiles on their face. Since this area was new to me, I did not felt awkward or reluctant to ask for help since everyone there made me feel welcomed and supported. The place is well managed and the care delivered are current. Thank you for the good experience and please continue to be awesome.
