Kalyra Woodcroft Aged Care

Kalyra Woodcroft Aged Care is one of three aged care facilities owned and operated by James Brown Memorial Trust in the Southern metropolitan area at Belair, Morphett Vale and McLaren Vale.

Kalyra Woodcroft Aged Care is a well established 83-bed facility, conveniently located in Woodcroft, offering a quality alternative for residential aged care to frail older people living in the Morphett Vale area. Set on spacious grounds residents are accommodated in single rooms, each with ensuite bathrooms in a home-like environment. Offering comprehensive ageing in place, Kalyra Woodcroft also hosts a dedicated memory support unit that provides specifically tailored programs with the security of knowing these residents are safe within their own environment.

Kalyra Woodcroft employs a wide range of skilled professional staff, with registered nurses available around the clock. The staff profile includes a Director of Care, Care Manager, Clinical Nurse, Registered and Enrolled Nurses and Careworkers. The clinical and care staff are supported by the Lifestyle, Hospitality, Maintenance and Administration team, who are committed to deliver aged care services thoughtfully and with a real concern for each resident as the individual they are.

In keeping with the value of “Quality Service” we have a commitment to continuing staff education, we support student placement and we award three significant annual prizes for Flinders University students studying medicine, nursing and allied health related to aged care.

Staff are encouraged to actively practice the Trust's Values and are supported in their duties through a commitment to continuing staff education innovatively delivered in part by the industry acclaimed Aged Care Channel. Many staff members have completed health related courses and Kalyra Woodcroft also provides a placement for students from TAFE Colleges, training agencies and schools. Care is taken to afford personal freedom and privacy to each of the residents, combined with the delivery of care which is based on a holistic approach from an interdisciplinary team.
