Welcome to Dovetree Aged Care Community

The positivity of the staff and volunteers at Dovetree is infectious. Whether it’s a special concert or creative activity, they all join in (often with a crazy costume!), bringing laughter and smiles. 

We focus on the small things, such as providing enjoyable dining experiences and appropriate technology (such as live streaming events on TVs) to enhance your wellbeing and keep you active, engaged and connected.

Our resident pets and Eden Companions also play an important role at Dovetree, providing comfort and companionship. Keep an eye out for our beloved cats (Smudge, Luna, Aurora) plus our new kittens (Smokey and Saber).  

When it comes to your care, we take the time to understand your individual needs. The clinical team at Dovetree provides quality care, alongside our onsite medical and allied health professionals, so all your health concerns are met to a consistently high standard.
