Roden Cutler Lodge

After breakfast, you join your new friends for a walk in the gardens. The peaceful bushland is the perfect backdrop for a good chat. Sitting together on the bench, it feels like the best way to start the day. Later, you have an art class. You’ve not only discovered a new hobby you love but have made some new friends in the process.

The rest of the day is just as full. A delicious lunch with a glass of wine, if you choose to, and an afternoon playing mahjong and cards with friends, it’s a life filled with connection, activity, and joy.

 

When lunch and dinner comes around, the dining room has a vibrant energy. Mealtimes are an enjoyable experience that you look forward to, socialising with your friends and with a glass of wine when you choose. You’re grateful for the variety of choice and freshly prepared options the hospitality team prepare each day. Next month you’ve decided to join the food focus group to work with the team on the next menu. You have always enjoyed cooking, so you’re pleased to be involved and contribute. 

 

As you retire to your room for the evening, you reflect on your day and your time at Roden Cutler Lodge so far. A big decision at the time to leave your family home, and everything that was familiar to you, but you’re pleased you did. You’re happy you made the move on your own terms, choosing a residential aged care home that feels right for you, a place where you can embrace the social atmosphere, enjoy activities, continue your favourite hobbies, and even explore new ones.

Yet perhaps what you value most are the friendships you’ve built since moving in. On quieter days, when you’re not up for much, it’s comforting to know that you’re surrounded by a supportive and friendly community.

You also appreciate the respectful balance of independence and care the staff provide, they’re always there when you need them.

This is now your home, a place where you feel safe, respected and loved.
