Residential care at RSL ANZAC Village brings the certainty of one of Australia’s largest and most experienced aged care services. As part of the RSL LifeCare Group, RSL ANZAC Village shares in our living care model – where we offer responsive support for those in need of care. Our team of health specialists enable us to respond to individual health needs. And we meet special dietary requirements with the experienced services of our onsite catering team.

Nursing Home, Hostel, High Care, Low Care – these terms are sometimes used to describe residential care homes. At RSL ANZAC Village we have many care homes that provide holistic care. All our bedrooms are single ensuites with some partnership rooms available.

PeterCosgroveHouse

• Mosman Trust – A Lovely Extra Service Home for 34 residents, Mosman Trust features luxury accommodation and an elegant, comfortable and secure environment with a hotel-like ambience. Mosman Trust accommodation includes private rooms with ensuites. The Home boasts a spacious, sun-drenched rooftop terrace and a delightful aviary that opens onto one of the dining areas.

• Long Tan – Providing Skilled Nursing Care in a beautiful and supportive homelike environment, Long Tan is ideal if you need short-term or ongoing long-term nursing care. Our care philosophy reinforces the healing and rehabilitation process and promotes independence. Situated on the Lower Ground Floor of Peter Cosgrove House, this 56-suite Extra Service home has excellent access to four spacious courtyards and there is a walk-in aviary and bunny run as well as many reminiscence centres including the Bradman Bar.

• Montgomery, Maryang San, East Timor – 71 beds on the Ground Floor – high level nursing home care for frail aged and palliative residents.

Now it’s our turn to look after you RSL ANZAC Village provides residential care to over 500 people in our eight care homes – Peter Cosgrove House, Catalina, Connie Fall, Kokoda, Milne Bay, Phyllis Stewart, Tobruk, Wirraway.

General Cosgrove, former Chief of the Defence Force, is justifiably proud of Peter Cosgrove House. “I am flattered and humbled that such a great facility – dedicated to aged care and looking after our Veterans – is named after me.”

Step into an RSL LifeCare residential service and you can’t help but feel at home. We seek to make your experience warm and inviting, from our homelike design, to our comfortable community areas and private bedrooms, to our exceptional outdoor gardens and landscaped grounds. Look around and you’ll notice points of interest throughout the residence, and you may even spot one of our pets. And of course, there are always the friendly smiling faces of our staff to ensure that each day spent here is a welcome one. RSL LifeCare has been caring for and serving seniors since 1911. Founders William Wood and Stephen Stack started with a simple vision – to look after and give the best to war veterans. Today, we are open to all Australians and are one of the most experienced and innovative providers of senior living services in the world.

Life is what you make it. At RSL LifeCare, we believe no two people are alike and we understand that the services each person requires are never exactly the same. We call this our person-centred approach to living. It begins with the resident and his or her needs. It results in choices – about day-to-day living, service and care options. In this way, we help maintain independence and dignity and provide the best possible lifestyle. Our approach has made RSL LifeCare one of the largest and most comprehensive senior living providers in the country.

Kokoda – A family of 63 people live at Kokoda – a name synonymous with all that is Australian. Kokoda is an Extra Service home – modern, comfortable and designed to enable a sense of wellbeing in a safe and friendly environment. Residents enjoy a relaxed atmosphere and friends and family are welcome at any time. There are beautiful courtyards and gardens where residents and visitors can enjoy a chat or celebrate a special event. There is around the clock influence of registered nurses to ensure that appropriate care is readily available.

Wirraway – A wonderful refuge for 43 residents, Wirraway is a special Extra Service Home for those experiencing high-level confusion, dementia and mental difficulties. There are spacious, secure grounds, a wonderfully sunny lounge and dining room, gazebos, and many reminiscence and diversional centres – including our own Morris Minor car!

PhyllisStewart – Providing care and service to 54 residents, Phyllis Stewart provides moderate to high level care in a safe and secure environment, adjacent and linked to Peter Cosgrove House.

CatalinaandMilneBay – These two adjacent facilities are home to 70 residents, in a wonderful bushland setting – tranquil, peaceful – with an active birdlife, Catalina and Milne Bay are a special haven for those with moderate care needs.

Tobruk – 40 residents with high level dementia, mental health and cognitive issues, live in this home. Tobruk is designed to lower stress levels with many winding and ambling pathways in a safe and secure environment, with two lounge rooms and a separate dining room and many points of interest – plus the resident FJ Holden to tinker with – or maybe the Singer Sewing machine?

Alan and Joy made a decision to move to a village

in order to downsize and not do several moves. They

wanted to move whilst they were healthy, active and

able to ‘fit in.’ “RSL ANZAC Village was initially our pick,

and after more exploration and checking, our decision

was made as the home we looked at was perfect,

the residents are friendly, the staff are supportive

and always available. We just love the bush setting

amongst the well maintained grounds and pathways.

The provision for ongoing care was also a positive

factor in our decision. We have never regretted our

move and have felt at home from the very first day!”

Alan & Joy GlasseyVilliers-Bretonneux

RSL LifeCare is widely recognized as a leader in Senior Living:

• Aged Care Standards & Accreditation Agency Commendable Accreditation Award – just seven of the 3,000 aged care services in Australia have reached this pinnacle of success

• Minister for Ageing Award – Winner of the Staff Education and Development Award

• Aged Care Association of Australia – Winner of the Leadership and Management Award

• Prime Minister’s Employer of the Year Award, Disability – NSW Finalist

• Aged Care Association of Australia Building Renovation – Finalist for the creation of innovative partnership rooms

All our services are linked in with detailed quality systems and have the backing of our university affiliation to ensure the highest care services possible.

After 22 years of residing in the Village, Peg’s advice to anyone thinking about a move is an emphatic “DO IT”. Her words about the RSL ANZAC Village are “everyone, but just everyone, is so caring. When my husband passed away, I was lonely but the Village recreation program saved my life. Also, it makes me happy that my family are at ease knowing that I am safe and cared for”

Peg LeeCutler Village

Helen has lived in the village for 15 years. With

her husband Bill, Helen moved in when Bill had

some health issues so that they could enjoy life

together, never dreaming they would need the

ongoing care, which they did only last year.

Helen’s advice to anyone is “Don’t leave it too

late to move in and although we were advised

to keep up our outside activities, we became so

involved within the village that our friends often

commented on our busy schedule!” “As a matter

of fact” Helen says. “I am so busy with my social

life, I have little spare time”.

RSL LifeCare Limited ABN 43 000 048 957

Our History RSL LifeCare is a charitable organisation that was formed in 1911 to provide care and service to war veterans. Services were initially provided at Bare Island, Botany Bay, until moving to Narrabeen in 1939. From small beginnings providing care and service to just a handful of war veterans, the organisation has grown to be one of the largest senior living services in Australia.

Caring for 7,500 people across Retirement Living, Home Care, Assisted Living, Dementia and Nursing Homes, we have developed an extensive range of services that fosters independence and provides social, clinical, emotional and spiritual support.

Despite our growth and the passage of time, RSL LifeCare remains true to its original aim and mission – to provide a home of peace and security to senior Australians.
