The Hostel
The Village Baxter is redeveloping the Low Care Aged Care Facilities and
consolidating all services into a single 60 bed facility. The main
Hostel is being progressively closed as current Residents move on to
other levels of care. A planning permit has been secured and site works
will commence in the coming weeks. The entire redevelopment process will
take 1 – 2 years.
Applications for accommodation in the main Hostel are no longer being
accepted. Residents living with the Village Baxter Retirement Village
can be ‘wait listed’ for accommodation in the existing Lodge (Low care
facility) provided that the necessary assessment process has been
completed and the Village’s own internal assessment team believe that
the Lodge is an appropriate facility for the Resident.
Applications for persons living in the general community to move into
the Village’s Aged Care Facilities are not being accepted at this time.
A significant portion of the main hostel is progressively being
converted into independent living apartments which offers a more
communal environment whilst still retaining independence. Please see The Apartments
page for additional information.
