218 Moray Street
New Farm Queensland 4005

Set in the heart of one of Brisbane's most appealing inner suburbs, Regis Corinya offers a lifestyle you'd expect in the cafe-centric hub of New Farm.

One of our most popular pastimes is the 10 minute walk to the local cafe for cappuccinos and muffins. This weekly outing with our physio and diversional therapist is an occasion enjoyed by many of our high care residents.

Located on a tree-lined street, our welcoming residence is only a short distance from the river and New Farm Park so residents can appreciate the essence of the city.

At home, our philosophy of care is based on the Eden Alternative - an approach to caring focused on bringing spontaneity, companionship and meaning to every interaction and activity.

A telling example is how many of our residents choose to use our outdoor area. Well-shaded and fringed by trees, they sit (either in chairs or wheelchairs) at a large bench and tend an array of beautiful potted plants.

This nurturing pastime is popular with experienced 'green thumbs' and budding gardeners alike, and an informal activity that is highly therapeutic and culturally enriching. As staff, we love it because we're surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers!

At Corinya, residents have freedom to continue embracing life in ways they find familiar, comforting and stimulating. Such as cooking much-loved dishes; old favourites from their past like pikelets, jam drops and pancakes.

Our resident cooks swing into action to spice up many annual celebrations. On Anzac Day, for example, they turn out delicious batches of Anzac biscuits for breakfasters hungry after our (almost at) dawn service.

Memories are integral to our caring approach. Taking lots of pictures of residents gives them the chance to remember, reflect and reminisce. Every occasion is a good excuse for photos, whether they're snaps of our monthly concert or the jovial antics during our bowls and skittles activities.

There are plenty of occasions that give us an excuse to make a fuss too. Mother's Day in particular, when our ladies enjoy a sea of balloons and flowers, a Mother's Day morning tea, hearty roast lunch and family visits galore.

Corinya residents are also able to take advantage of the following services on offer:

• regular church service
• massage therapy
• occupational therapy
• music therapy
• pet therapy
• snoezelen room (for dementia-specific care)
• experienced in-house chef and catering staff
