Part of Carinity Aged Care

Carinity’s Wishart aged care community, Wishart Gardens, has been caring for local seniors for more than 25 years. At Wishart Gardens, residents are encouraged to stay connected to the local community and enjoy the area they know and love.

Care is assured, with a Registered Nurse on-site at all times, supported by a team of carers who are always close by with support and a smile.

Dining is important at Carinity. Mealtimes provide physical nourishment and social interaction. Our chef cooks fresh on site, ensuring there’s always ample choice and variety – along with plenty of snacks when hunger strikes.

Wishart Gardens is well loved for good reason. The recently renovated aged care community is warm and welcoming, with beautiful gardens and caring staff who’ll make sure you feel safe, respected and valued.

There’s plenty of laughter to be had with fellow residents in the community pavilion, pampering in the salon and social activities and outings to help live every day with purpose. Our physio-leg exercise classes help you keep strong, active and safe, while regular visits from a podiatrist, mobile dentist and other allied health professionals make it easy to stay well.

With our retirement village just next door, we can even help couples stay connected if only one partner requires aged care.
