The Grange Residential Care Service in Hamilton provides a 45-bed generic aged care facility, enabling ageing in place. The Community Aged Care Packages Program provides care in the home for those residents who are able to, and wish to stay in their own homes, with the support of personal care services. WDHS manages 30 CACPs, administered from The Grange.
The Grange completed its first stage of redevelopment in December 1999 and from then on has been a Residential Aged Care Facility. Subsequent stages of redevelopment were completed by August 2002.
The Grange has also been known as a hostel, a maternity hospital and a general hospital. Currently the facility provides permanent and respite accommodation for 45 residents and offers nursing care to the frail, elderly and disabled in our community.
The Grange is part of the Hamilton Base Hospital and a member of the Western District Health Service.
Residents at The Grange enjoy single rooms, with ensuite facilities and are provided with an environment of comfort, dignity and security.
Staff provide an holistic approach to the care they deliver and encourage all residents to maintain their independence and special interests, and also to develop new friendships and interests.
