View Full Details of Bendigo Nursing HomeStaff were always polite, cheerful and professional. All were kind, friendly and helpful, without exception. All were proactive in offering care and support to both patients and visitors, even out of hours. Staff made us aware of what they could and couldn't do for a patient up front, but would always do more rather than less. They always welcomed visitors but would also make us know the patient's wishes came first. The facilities were clean and comfortable, well decorated and maintained. Staff seemed happy to be there and interacted well with each other in a spirit of co-operation. Good atmosphere always.
Extremely impressive on every level
Lovely friendly people. I have every admiration for them
My brother Peter is in Bendigo and my mother Mary also spent her last years there and I have nothing but praise for all who work there and have and still are caring for my family, with kindness and a smile
In general, I find Bendigo Nursing home to be pleasant and well attended. There are always staff around and the nursing, in particular, is excellent. My only continuing concern is with the food, especially the lack of regular green vegetables. Perhaps it is too costly or maybe the very elderly shouldn't eat vegetables. Also, there doesn't seem to be any great thought given to an individual's requirements, how many 90-year-old's like pizza or pasta; or uncooked fish. After some years visiting this establishment, the food I see provided is still the main issue for me.
Our Father became a resident at Bendigo in October 2017. For my sister and I, we thought choosing a nursing home for our Dad would be the hardest thing we'd ever have to do, but walking into Bendigo, we both knew we had found the perfect home for him. We are content in the knowledge that our Dad could not be better cared for than he is by all the staff. The atmosphere is so friendly, it's a joy to visit. As a family, we are made to feel so welcome, as are other friends and family, especially our mum (and our dog!). We see this as Dad's home now, not a place we have had to 'put him in to'. We're so lucky to have found Bendigo, we couldn't praise the staff highly enough - as for the food - amazing! We tell Dad he's in a 5 star hotel because that's what it feels like, but with wonderful staff there to look after him for us around the clock. Thank you, everyone, at Bendigo - we couldn't ask for better for our Dad!
