About the facilities
Barwon Health has multiple temporary and permanent career opportunities available within the memory support unit at Blakiston Lodge and the mental health aged care unit at Blakiston Lodge. These facilities are located at the McKellar Centre, Geelong, Victoria.
Blakiston Lodge is a 90-bed, high level, residential aged care mental health facility which consists of two secure units of 45 aged mental health beds and 45 dementia specific beds. Residents are referred who cannot be looked after in the general aged care system due to their level of cognitive, emotional or behavioural disturbance. The goal is to improve the resident’s condition so that they can be transferred to a less restrictive and more appropriate accommodation.
Blakiston Lodge is dedicated to caring for people with dementia and mental illness and offers a safe and secure environment and quality nursing, medical and psychiatric support for residents.
