Regis Waverley Gardens - Dandenong North
5 Bakers Road
Dandenong North Victoria 3175
Pampering is part of the pleasure
of living at Regis Waverley Gardens. Whether that means having your
hair and nails done every week in our recently revamped hair and
beauty salon, or simply soaking up the spacious modern atmosphere
of our new wing.
Everyone makes similarly
enthusiastic comments, residents and visitors alike. They say the
place feels like a beautiful hotel, with attention paid to every
detail of service and setting.
Such superb lifestyle quality is
revealed with just a peek inside the lovely light-filled rooms of
our new wing. All residents here have their own flat screen TVs
plus many hidden luxuries, like the in-floor heating in each
ensuite - perfect for warming feet on chilly winter mornings!
The new wing opened several weeks
ago and is a joy to walk through, its fresh and bright interior
decorated with an elegant palate of neutral tones. Olive greens,
coppers and understated earthy colours create a calming ambience
which people can live with comfortably everyday.
Waverley Garden's original building
is very elegant too. Only five years old and compatibly modern,
spacious and light-filled. Perhaps the biggest difference is that
our original section has had time to develop a wonderful presence
entirely its own - engendered primarily by the personality of so
many happy residents within.
Each wing has a separate front
entrance but both are interlinked at various points throughout the
interior. Each also contains its own communal areas, dining room
and living room, activities rooms and sitting rooms. All hum with
the energy of daily life, from conversations to creative
undertakings.
Activities rooms are particularly
bustling, a hive of action whether it's the morning exercise
routines of residents, our regular Monday carpet bowls, daily bingo
or specialised one-on-one activities like knitting. Residents and
their families often book these rooms for get togethers and
celebrations, like birthdays and anniversaries.
Performers are a big part of life
at Waverley Gardens too. John the piano man plays every Friday and
residents love the live music (from singing groups to instrumental
ensembles) which add such vivacity to our regular happy hours.
We're especially looking forward to
a forthcoming performance from the Lyndale School Band, as well as
visits from the students of various other local schools who come as
part of their community service program.
Sundays see church services of
different denominations and throughout the week residents settle in
to enjoy movies, from classic westerns to romantic favourites like
Breakfast at Tiffany's.
As perpetually welcoming as our
community is, residents are always excited by opportunities for
excursions farther afield, such as their regular visits to
Dandenong RSL's Morning Melodies sing-along event.
Not only is this an excuse to
reminisce through song, it's a well-appreciated chance to mix and
chat with residents from other facilities. Rarely do these
occasions go by without one of our residents sharing just how ideal
their life is at Waverley Gardens.
Waverley Gardens residents are also
able to take advantage of the following services on offer:
- on-site hairdressing and beauty therapy
- volunteer program
- experienced in-house chef and catering staff
- special dietary requirements met
Residents receive all the benefits
of the Regis Group's living care model of responsive support
provided by leading professionals and tailored to individual
medical, cultural and religious preferences.
