Bert England Lodge

Description :
Bert England Lodge provides low care and dementia support for 44 residents and is managed by Southern Cross Care (WA) Inc. on behalf of the City of Rockingham. Opened in 1991, the facility gets its name from Bert England, a General Practitioner who together with other Rockingham/Kwinana residents raised money to open an aged care facility in the area. The facility was designed to evoke a home like environment with four individual houses, each offering a kitchen with an adjoining lounge and dining area. Residents can enjoy the company of others in our large communal space and participate in regular activities, outings and events. The houses have generous sized private rooms with ensuited bathrooms and reverse cycle air conditioning. Our residents receive 24 hours a day care and specialist support from allied health professionals, along with services such as a hair salon and pastoral care. The local Anglican Church visits the facility every two weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, CareAbout is not affiliated with My Aged Care. CareAbout is an independent service helping older Australians to navigate their way through the often-confusing landscape of Aged Care in Australia.

  • Most people in Australia would prefer to stay in their own home than move into an Aged Care Home. The government supports both situations and is increasingly shifting funding to care at home.

  • We’re lucky that the government helps to fund the cost of aged care. Everyone over the age of 65 years is entitled to some help. And yes, everyone is expected to contribute to the cost of aged care.

  • If you choose to access government subsidies you need to start by calling My Aged Care. My Aged Care will walk you through the steps you need to take, starting with a face – to – face assessment of your loved one’s needs. My Aged Care will also guide you through the fees you will need to contribute to the costs of care. You can then choose how you want to spend the government subsidies – this may mean support to stay at home or moving into an Aged Care Home. There is a delay of up to 8 weeks to access government subsidies. If you need help earlier you can pay for care directly. If you need help now, CareAbout can talk you through the fees and services of our different partners so you can compare aged care value and service offerings.

  • Aged Care is complex and expensive. There seems to be endless fees and hoops to jump through. But there is help. Call CareAbout and we’ll explain aged care fees in words you’ll understand. We can even match you with one of our care partners – and this is absolutely free!
