Due to our wide range of services and support, we strive to accommodate changes in care needs from within Lyndoch, so that residents aren’t uprooting their home when their needs change.
While living in a shared environment, we actively encourage each resident to personalise their room to suit their uniquely personality, from photographs and knick-knacks to their favourite armchair, reading lamp or other treasured pieces of furniture.
While we help to build relationships with and between our residents through a range of social programs and day-to-day activities, residents are also strongly encouraged to continue with their own hobbies, leisure interests and exercise programs. External outings are also organised regularly and include sightseeing excursions, shopping and to promote community links with local schools.
Social Programs and activities include: Laughter yoga, card games, bingo, cooking, exercise programs, movie viewings, AFL football tipping, musical entertainment and many others.
Onsite services and facilities include: Visiting library, chapel and services of worship, internet access and customised Skype facilities, hairdresser, men’s group, dementia carers support group, music therapy, laundry services, newspaper delivery, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, podiatry, and dietary advice.
