thank you to the caring staff at Tarralla for looking after my Dad Trevor. He was very happy there if only for a short time.

The Tarralla Nursing Home in Croydon Victoria, is a lovely home, however in the last few months their lifestyle program has declined drastically in quality.
The food is average and the chef does not seem to take on board any criticism!
Staff are pleasant and do their duties quite well, but there could be some improvement.
In my opinion the standard they produce when being accredited should be the standard at all times.

My mum was well cared for here re; her daily care, her psychological needs and particularly her health care at the end of her life. She was made as happy as was possible. A good cheerful staff provided decent food, plenty of interesting activities and a reasonable level of individual care.
