The Winston Park Care Centre, on the grounds of Chartwell Estate in Winston Park, Upper Highway, provides 24-hour professional nursing across respite, assisted living, semi-frail, frail and palliative care — so residents are never asked to move on and start over with strangers.
On this very site, more than a century ago, the Loyal Guild of Women cared for wounded soldiers during the Boer War. The Centre continues that proud tradition today, with a competent and compassionate team under the management of committed Nursing Sisters.
Care levels are set by professional assessment with your own doctor's input — so you only ever pay for the care you actually need.

Care at the level you need it — 24/7, set by professional assessment with your own doctor's input.
