The Wongaburra Story
Half a century ago, Wongaburra was created as a caring gesture by the people of Beaudesert, Queensland to enable the elderly to remain and live within their community.
The town retains the friendly and compassionate spirit that rural Australia is famous for and Wongaburra is the embodiment of that true community spirit.
On the 29th October 1965, the Beaudesert Chamber of Commerce proposed the development and establishment of a home for aged people. The proposal immediately attracted the support of the community and in only five years the building was completed and officially opened by Dame Annabel Rankin on the 22nd August 1970.
Wongaburra has since evolved into both highly sophisticated centre for aging residents, as well as offering Home Care services to the local commuinity.
We are proud to support the lifestyle choices of the elderly in the community and surrounding areas.
So much more than a sophisticated residential facility, Wongaburra also offers Home Care services to clients in their own homes on the Scenic Rim.
- a residential aged care facility with 125 beds including specialist dementia, palliative and respite care
- Home Care Packages (HCP) to approx 80 local consumers
- Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) to 90 to 120 local consumers
