    My Father was a resident at Opal South Valley. I cannot explain how impressed I was with the care and compassion that was given to my Dad. All the staff were so attentive to his needs and the caring was first class. Management and staff were wonderful.

    Placing my loved Mum in an aged care residence was a difficult decision to reach but Opal South Valley has proven to be the right choice. The kindness, care and respect shown to Mum, and indeed to me and my family, has been heartwarming and greatly appreciated. Mum is able to spend time enjoying the beautiful gardens, meeting new friends in the communal lounge room, and taking part in the entertainment programmes provided. Everything is clean, tidy and bright and it seems that nothing is too much trouble for the wonderfully caring staff. I have been kept informed of Mum’s health and well-being at every stage during the Covid-19 experience. The management and staff have made it as easy as possible, within the necessary restrictions, to have as much access as possible with “window visits”, FaceTime, phone calls etc. while strictly adhering to the highest standards of safety protocol to protect residents, staff and visitors’ health.

    When you are FAMILY of a resident that resides in your establishment you should be able to find out if your family member is ok. In particular of these bad times. I have been trying to track my Uncle for ages now and have found out recently where he is. Ok you can't disclose information but what you can do is disclose information about me to him so he can confirm who I am. I find your behaviour in suggesting I am not family disgraceful. And am offended by your lazy methods of not assisting me in this matter. Your reply below is interesting as you did not suggest the option of passing my details in the proposed method. Your response was a repeat of we cannot pass information on nor can we get information from you as in me as apparently according to you I'm not family. May I suggest you communicate to your staff better methods of assisting blood family when all they are trying to do is contact family. And make it standard practice of your proposed method below. Then you won't get a bad review. Thanks.......

      Hi Natalie, We are in daily contact with all authorised family members of our residents at South Valley. If you would like your details passed on to your uncle please email us from the contact page here https://www.opalagedcare.com.au/contact-us/enquiry . Let us know his name & your details and we will immediately pass these on. Thank you
