Residential Care
A place to feel safe, supported, and truly at home
Choosing a residential aged care home is a big step. At Carrington, our team can make that journey easy. We provide warm, high-quality care in four purpose-designed Residential Care homes across our estate. Our homes are supported by experienced clinical care teams who work with you, right here in Camden.
What Residential Care means at Carrington
Our Residential Care homes provide a safe and supportive place to live with 24/7 care when independent living is no longer possible.
Our person-centred approach is shaped by each resident's routines, preferences, and life story, so care feels personal and reassuring. Safety, comfort, and dignity come first, every day.

Aged Care Assessment (ACAT)
 To access permanent residential aged care, an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) assessment is required.

Australian government requirements
The Australian Government requires financial information to determine aged care fees and eligibility for assistance.
This process helps calculate:

Our team can help explain this process and guide you through the required documentation.
