We were so disappointed that we couldn't actually go in, because our latest vaccinations weren't on our Medicare app as yet. Ggrr. The carer(Pam) was SO HELPFUL,Trying to get it on the ph for us. In the long run they brought our Aunt out to see us. So it ended well. In no way was Cape care at fault. It looks a very nice establishment.
My husband Brian and I have been very impressed with Cape Care's wonderful design for independent retiree apartments and have signed up for one on the second floor. The apartment design will allow us to live there very comfortably and we will be able to take most of the furniture that is most important to us. We have been ressured by the professionalism of the Cape Care representatives and also by the wonderful reputation that the Cape care organisation have earned from their many years providing aged care services in Busselton.
