CARE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

MAYFLOWER BRIGHTON RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE

PERSON-CENTRED CARE Through our residential aged care services at Mayflower Brighton, we are committed to providing holistic care options that meet the needs of our residents, and their families, in relation to individual clinical, physical, social, spiritual and emotional support. Ultimately, our aim is to promote the independence, lifestyle and social relationships of our residents in a secure and harmonious environment.

Mayflower's focus on person-centred care is also reflected in our qualified nursing staff, who monitor and manage the health and wellbeing of our residents 24 hours a day. In conjunction the personal care staff provide services including assistance with dressing, bathing, meals and other activities of daily living.

At Mayflower we consult with every new resident and their family representative to develop an individually tailored Care Plan that meets the needs and wishes of that resident. This Care Plan is monitored and reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that Mayflower responds to any changes in health status or requirements.
