Murroona Gardens

West's Lane, Bowen, Queensland, 4805

Winner of Ergon Energy’s Friendliest Town Award in 2004, Bowen is the gem of the coral coast and the envy of southern visitors who flock to its warmer climates every winter. The famous coastline is considered the home of some of Queensland’s finest beaches.

As well as a range of care options, including low, high and respite, Murroona Gardens hosts a range of extra services and diversional/day therapy activities. Independent living units are also available with the relevant support if needed.

At Murroona Gardens, residents are recognized as individuals with different needs and preferences. As such, each resident receives personalised care delivered with the same dignity they would demand at home.

The catering department is a great pride of the facility, with quarterly rotations of the menu, ensuring meals reflect the season and contain quality produce. Dietary requirements and nutritional values are prioritised.

A modern, air-conditioned, 17-seater bus is used regularly for weekly shopping trips and accompanied outings.

Murroona Gardens encourages residents’ independence, personal interests and lifestyle choices. Staff are committed to maintaining the excellent record of service of the organisation, with multiple accreditation awards under the belt.
