Amberlea Aged Care Facility

 

Amberlea is nestled in the undulating picturesque township of Drouin in western Gippsland. Offering the best of both worlds – a country ‘resort-like’ ambience and lifestyle, with the convenience of being situated less than one hour drive from metropolitan Melbourne.

 

A ‘lodge-style’, purpose built ‘low level care’ (or ‘hostel’ level) residence, Amberlea comprises warm elegant lounge, dining and living areas, designed and decorated to ensure optimum comfort, privacy, safety, security and lifestyle. All residents have single bedrooms with private ensuites, however there is also the option of bedrooms that have doors that ‘interconnect’ rooms for couples.

 

And if Amberlea sounds like a great place to live, our trained and experienced staff who believe it is an even better place to work, will ensure the highest level of individualised care and support focusing the current and future needs of our residents and their families.

 

The Proprietors of Amberlea, ‘Alliance Care Services’, have been involved in the management and delivery of health and aged care services for Victorians for over 20 years. Meeting the needs of residents has been their focus from the design, through to the delivery of care and they have proven commitment to the delivery quality of care, accommodation and lifestyle.

 

The adjacent Independent Living Units permit residents to live independently in private accommodation, with the knowledge and assurance that hospitality services and care and is only a call-button away.
