Located in Sydney's northern suburbs precinct of Wahroonga / Normanhurst, this aspirational Signature home is now open. The architecture is inspired by the upper north shore manor house, purposefully designed recognising the importance of respecting and enhancing the existing character of the neighbourhood. Greenwood exudes sophistication yet projects the warmth and character of an elegant home.
When you move into Greenwood, you become a part of a broader community. With 5 unique neighbourhoods to choose from, each housing its very own lounge and dining area, residents can enjoy absolute comfort and convenience, no matter where you live.
Choose between a 1st floor room with Juliette-style balconies or have direct access to a courtyard and/or garden. All single rooms and suites are generously sized ready for you to personalise just the way you like it. The beautifully appointed bedrooms with private ensuites have large windows or glass doors, expansive doorways and are generously furnished with king-single beds.
Your welcome experience is as easy as it can be with a dedicated 'Move In' service to take care of the necessities, so that you can focus on settling in. This includes:
Featuring extensive outdoor areas with manicured and play gardens, the large existing trees define the central courtyard providing substantial shade to be enjoyed by residents, friends and family members. Various private gardens with paved patios and outdoor seating offer more intimate experiences for the choosing.
Experience an aspirational level of lifestyle and services that focus on making sure every day is the best it can be. The Signature Services include a suite of carefully selected, good value service offerings over and above the basic aged care requirements, all of which are available to you at your leisure.
The Daily Signature Services include:
From 20 September 2024, the following aged care fees will become effective:
The Basic Daily Care Fee increases to $63.57 pd (from $61.96 pd).
The Fully-Supported Asset Threshold increases to $61,500 (from $59,500).
The Non-Supported Asset Threshold increases to $206,039 (from $201,231).
The maximum Daily Accommodation Contribution (DAC) for refurbished / non-refurbished rooms will be $69.49 pd / $45.31 pd respectively.
The effective Refundable Accommodation Contribution (RAC) for a refurbished facility, above the 40 % fully supported ratio, will be $303,395 which will put pressure on persons looking for a fully supported placement, given that the average RAD is now higher than this amount.
The Maximum Permissible Interest Rate (MPIR) has not yet been finalised for 1 October 2024, however recent RBA inaction suggests that the MPIR will remain around the current 8.36% pa.
The Basic Daily Care Fee and some aged care thresholds are indexed to the Age Pension. On the 20 September 2024, the single age pension increases from $1,116.30 fn to $1,144.40 fn. This is based upon recent increases in the cost of living reflected in the Pensioner & Beneficiary Living Cost Index (PBLCI).

From , the Government has started to use the STAR RATING system for registered aged care homes (new homes will be allocated a Star Rating after 12 months of operation).
Star Ratings are displayed on the Aged Care Provider Search within the My Aged Care website.
The Star Rating is based upon 5 levels with the middle rating denoting only a minimum baseline of ‘Acceptable’ care quality and services.
The Star Rating System has revealed that 41 % of aged care homes are performing at a 5-star (excellent) or 4-star (good) level.
Star Ratings also reveal that astonishingly 5 % are performing below the minimum standards set, receiving a dismal and disturbing (Improvement Needed) or (Significant Improvement Needed) Star Rating.
We support full public disclosure of those aged care homes that are making the effort to exceed the regulated standards and community expectations.
We also support the naming of aged care homes that do not currently provide quality levels of aged care services to the frail elderly and vulnerable members of our community.
The Star Rating system is a key component of the aim for continuous improvement to our aged care system.
