“We look forward to creating a partnership with you to ensure we provide the best care and support for your loved one.”
Sirius Cove Aged Care Home is situated in Sydney’s picturesque Lower North Shore. Visitors are welcome any time to catch up over a cup of tea and take in the stunning view of Sydney Harbour from one of our lounge or garden areas.
At Sirius Cove we pride ourselves on the excellent care services that we provide to every resident. Our care team is made up of a Director of Nursing, registered nurses, personal care staff, lifestyle officers and other support staff who work 24 hours a day, seven days a week to ensure you are well cared for.
We provide palliative care, respite care and dementia support and are more than happy to answer any questions you may have about your care requirements.
In recognition of our very high standards of care and services, Sirius Cove has been fully accredited by the Australian Government meeting all 44 of the expected outcomes.
We believe it is never too late to make new friends and discover a new hobby. Our activity programs are designed by our lifestyle officers and physiotherapists to both promote movement and exercise, while others provide entertainment and the opportunity to socialise.
We provide a varied program of creative and therapeutic activities that include music therapy, bus outings, and individual attention for residents who are unable to join in with group activities. Friends and family are more than welcome to join in with any of our activities.
Your room will be furnished for you, but we encourage you to bring personal belongings such as photographs and soft furnishings to help you feel at home. There are television sets that you can watch in our common rooms, but you are welcome to bring you own television or radio if you wish.
Enjoying a variety of delicious, nutritionally balanced meals is an important part of maintaining good health. Our cook prepares a wide variety of nutritious, home-cooked meals in our kitchen on site. We offer choices of hot and cold meals, cater for allergies, intolerances and culturally-specific needs, and create a special menu for a theme day each month.
