My father was admitted to aged care almost 12 months ago and not in a very good state. He had lost a lot of weight due to not eating,unable to shop,refusing care at home. He also looked very unkempt. Since he has been in care he has put on weight and he always looks clean. The facilities are good although Dad chooses not to participate. The residents and visitors are able to make tea,coffee and there is always something to eat. I am happy with his care.

Far below any standards you would expect from Palliative aged care. We had to remove our barely conscious loved one by ambulance to hospital to save his life because of neglect. Within a week of beautiful care in a wonderful hospital where he was properly fed, receiving proper pain management and being treated with dignity, his condition was transformed.
We witnessed very sad incidents of neglect of other helpless patients over the times we...

My mother entered Regis Blackburn in January and is thriving. She is more physically and socially active than she was on her own.
The staff are all professional and the setting is fantastic. (Mum's only complaint I have hear is that there is too much green (she wants more flowers and less gum trees!!) I am so pleased that she got a place at Regis.

We needed a high care residence for our sister who suffers with mental health and short term memory loss, and in need of intense care and diverse activities. The staff are very caring of her needs and more than happy to talk to us about our concerns, The facilities are clean and modern and well maintained. She is more than well looked after.
Spectacular is an understatement. Regis Blackburn is our flagship residence, an architecturally designed contemporary showpiece with resort-style facilities and the absolute best of premium care for residents of all levels of independence.Overlooking the magnificent bushland of Blackburn Lake Sanctuary, Regis Blackburn is a pleasure to live within and an asset to the surrounding suburb, which is one of the most pleasant, peaceful and green in Melbourne's inner east.Our keen birdwatchers are always ready to point out their favourites, like the iridescent rainbow lorikeets which are so prevalent in the Blackburn area. There are plenty of kookaburras laughing around us too and don't be surprised to see the occasional pelican making a pit-stop on the lake.Of course, many of our new residents already know this. A great number are long-time residents of Blackburn and appreciate the chance to live beside one of their most familiar landmarks.
