Brightwater operates one retirement village – Kingsway Court in Madeley.
It is a community of 168 independent homes.
In FY22 we successfully re-leased 10 homes with all homes leased.
Technology upgrades, falls prevention and a community garden
During FY22 we upgraded medi-alarm to 4G for all 168 homes.
Residents also participated in a trial for the QSign Project with Better Hearing Australia. The program teaches sign language for those whose hearing is declining. Mobile hearing tests were also provided to all residents.
The Falls Prevention Program was offered to our residents in partnership with Brightwater at Home. Meanwhile, residents enjoyed establishing a community garden.
Celebrating in style
During FY22 we introduced birthday morning teas for residents. Hosted by staff, the morning teas are a wonderful way to mark residents’ birthdays including several milestones celebrations.
The average age of our residents is 84.
Kingsway Court is home to 220 residents (113 single occupants and 53 double occupants).
