Pioneer House Aged Care is a community based organisation funded by the Federal Government and run by a voluntary management committee. Located in Mudgee we are approximately 3.5 hours pleasant drive from Sydney and the Central Coast. Nestled in a large undulating valley and positioned on the Central Tablelands of NSW we are part of the Mid Western Regional Council area. Pioneer House first came into being when concerned citizens in the Mudgee area realised the need for an aged care facility in the district. Opening in 1965 we began our journey as an Aged Care Facility with just 16 beds. Never one to remain static, we continued to increase in size over the years until achieving our present capacity of 81 beds. In 1995, Pioneer House commenced our association with quality dementia care through the opening of our secure high care dementia specific area. 2005 a further 18 dementia specific beds were added.
