Southern Cross Care Castra

Horse_riding_for_web_resized.jpgSouthern Cross Care Castra is an integrated Aged Care Facility at Murgon, the hub of the diverse South Burnett Region of South East Queensland, just a 2 - 3 hour drive from major coastal centres and Brisbane. By integrated we mean that the facility is well connected at a social level with the local community.

Castra offers quality aged care with a 32 bed facility. Residents are offered a private room with an ensuite shared with one other room. Several rooms have private ensuites. The facility also includes Independent Living Units which are adjacent to the facility. Respite care is available for short stays.

Castra is surrounded by manicured, well maintained grounds and gardens, it is conveniently located and accessible to all services and facilities. Murgon is well serviced for medical needs, with two doctors visiting in house fortnightly.

At Southern Cross Care (Qld) we are committed to providing a unique quality of life for all residents. We have a full time Diversional Therapist, who arranges a varied program of activities to suit all interests.

The personal needs of all residents are attended to by our caring and well trained personnel, focusing on valuing and respecting human life and providing care with dignity. Staff are onsite 24 hours a day and an alarm system with central monitoring is installed in every room and every independent living unit.

Activities offered are many and varied including mystery bus trips, outings to concerts and other events, non denominational church services in the beautifully appointed chapel along with indoor bowls, bingo, board games and craft in the large recreation room. Happy hour with entertainment is a regular occurrence and the library in the residents lounge is stocked with a wide selection of large and small print books for the enjoyment and comfort of residents. 

Southern Cross Care Castra enjoys support from the local community and many valued and committed volunteers. Castra is proud of the aged care service it offers.
