I am very happy that my family and I made the decision to place mum at The Alexander. The staff are so amazing and helped each member of my family with the transition into aged care. Not only was the decision to move a difficult one for mum, but also for those around her, it was an extremely stressful time. We knew nothing about aged care, but the knowledgeable, caring staff helped us every step of the way. We are all so grateful for the support we’ve received. Thank you, thank you, thank you

FRESH & NUTRITIOUS MEALS

Nutritious and tasty, quality home cooked meals

The Alexander offers nutritious and tasty meals that are freshly prepared in consultation with our dietitian and cooked on site by our experienced chefs.

A four-week rotating menu ensures a variety of meals and refreshments, and individual food preferences and special dietary needs are always taken into consideration.

PETS WELCOME
