Villas 

The Villas are fully carpeted, draped and landscaped and come complete with a host of features designed to make your retirement as comfortable as possible. 

Features include an eye-level oven, a dishwasher, a waste disposal unit and a call button in the bedroom and bathroom to summon staff from the main rest home. 

Villa residents have full access to all the facilities and recreational activities enjoyed by all residents.

Serviced Apartments and Studios 

If you would prefer living in the main complex while still retaining your privacy, there are several options to choose from. 

An Apartment is the luxury option and each has a separate bedroom as well as a dining/living area and ensuite. 

There are two types of Studio options available. The difference between them is that the Courtyard Studios are slightly smaller than the Deluxe Studios. Both Studio designs have the bedroom combined with the living area. 

Residents of both the Studios and Apartments also have their own separate lounge and dining facilities within the main complex. The residents are offered partial or full care depending on their needs.

Rest Home care 

Our Rest Home has a dedicated Charge Nurse, Registered nurse, Enrolled Nurses and Caregivers. All receive training and regular updates. There are 34 Rest Home rooms, all with ensuites, and a small selection of premium or larger rooms if you prefer. 

There are several lounges and small seating areas so that you can socialise or have a quiet read either inside or outside in one of the garden courtyards. We have an additional activities room where we do exercises four times per week, play bingo, bowls, do crafts etc. It has access to Sky TV and also contains a projector and large screen for movies. 

Continuing care  (Hospital wing) 

The Wood has a 47-bed Hospital wing, all with large ensuites and well equipped with hoists, transfer aids and wheelchairs. 

This wing has a large, dedicated and well trained team with permanent Registered Nursing staff including a Clinical Coordinator, Charge Nurse, Enrolled Nurses and Caregivers. In addition there are Physiotherapist and Diversional Therapy staff as well as the Chaplain, Priest and volunteers. 

There are three lounges in the Hospital, the main one with a plasma television for events like the Rugby World Cup. A goldfish and budgie add to the homely feeling. You can indulge in a foot spa, manicure or take a wheelchair walk with one of the friendly staff. There are always crafts, reading, games or baking activities happening during the day and happy hour on Thursdays. In summer we have barbecues in the courtyard extending out from the dining room and enjoy the beautiful garden views.

The Rest Home Wing

Our Rest Home provides care from our Registered Nurses and experienced caregivers 24 hours a day if you need it and if you want to see a Doctor, you can choose your own or The Wood Retirement Village has a specifically contracted Doctor who visits every Wednesday. 

Every room of the Rest Home offers a single bedroom with its own ensuite and small refrigerator and personal treasures if you wish to bring them. There is a conveniently placed nurse call button above each bed and in the ensuite. And remember, we can cater to special dietary needs, have daily monitored assessment programs and have on-site physiotherapy, podiatry and hairdressing services. 

The Continuing Care Wing 

The Continuing Care wing is dedicated to providing the highest level of 24 hour registered nursing care for as long as necessary. The availability of continuing care within the complex means that all residents have preferential entry to the wing, and need not leave the familiarity and security of the village in order to receive this level of assistance.

All rooms in the Continuing Care wing have large single rooms with ensuite facilities. A fully electric bed ensures residents have total control and comfort. 

Many of the rooms have ranch sliders opening onto private courtyards or garden areas, and numerous lounges provide ample room for entertainment and also quiet areas for families to visit.
