Our professional team at Watergardens take a people centred approach to care, which means our residents benefit from clinical care, participation in stimulating activities and nourished with wholesome and culturally accepted meals that are individualised to their needs and tastes. We also preserve their autonomy by involving them in daily-decision making, and offer complete transparency for families and loved ones.
At Watergardens, we provide permanent care, respite care palliative care and dementia care. It’s our goal to go above and beyond, ensuring professionalism, dignity and respect alongside building strong friendships with all of our residents and families.
