Everyone needs a bit of extra help as we get older. At some stage, you will likely have to consider whether you should stay in your own own home or if you would benefit from the extra support of moving into a residential aged care home.
At Medical & Aged Care Group, we believe in providing the highest quality of care for our residents. We provide aged care facilities and services to ensure you are supported in your physical and emotional wellbeing, so you have everything you need to enjoy your lifestyle to the fullest.

Get to know the MACG difference
At MACG, everything we do is centered around our residents. We're a family owned business, and we have family values at the core of our approach to aged care. In practice, that means we provide the level of care and support we would want for our own family members and ourselves.
We get to know all our residents and what they care about, including cultural and religious practices and requirements. We also encourage our residents to make their own decisions about how they want to enjoy their lifestyle. From meals to activities and care services, having choice over the things you do promotes dignity, privacy, and skills, so our residents can enjoy their lifestyle to its fullest.
If you have any questions about MACG and our approach to residential aged care, please get in touch with our friendly team. We'd love to help.
