About

BaptistCare Durham Green Centre Aged Care Home

At BaptistCare Durham Green Centre, it's a welcome home.

Designed with a people-first approach, Durham Green Centre is located in the heart of Menangle’s charming town centre and caters to residents who need some additional support with everyday tasks, while maintaining some independence. The team at Durham Green Centre strive to empower residents with the support they need, providing care and assistance 24 hours a day. Our caring team are here to make the transition into aged care as easy as possible and cater for the individual needs of each resident.

The team’s round-the-clock care program provides assistance with personal hygiene, mobility, nutrition and hydration, incontinence, medication, and transfers featuring wheelchairs or walking aids. We also offer individual support and treatment for recurrent confusion including cognitive impairments and behavioural disorders.

Residents will be served delicious fresh meals prepared by chefs and monitored by dieticians to ensure a healthy lifestyle, with the option to dine in their own apartment or join friends in the communal dining room. There are many activities at Durham Green Centre, and residents can participate in as little or as much as they like. Residents are invited to take part in regular outings and bus trips, enjoy time in the library, watch a movie in the lounge areas or have a chat with other residents.

Featuring 104, spacious single rooms

Durham Green Centre contains 104 fully furnished single rooms with a generous private ensuite, kitchenette for making light refreshments and some contain a private balcony. 48 of the rooms are located in the Manor and 56 rooms are in the Memory Care Lodge.

You are welcome to bring some smaller furniture items from home as well as other decorations to transform the space and make it your own. You are never far from enjoying time with other residents and friends in the communal lounge areas, gardens or on the verandah.
