Melaleuca, Home for the Aged

Melaleuca is a small 48-bed, not-for-profit residential aged care facility located in East Devonport, Tasmania, serving the local community and surrounding areas. Established in 1982 as a result of community fundraising efforts, it provides both residential care and respite care with a focus on creating a homely environment. The facility offers single en-suite rooms with views of gardens or the Mary Binks Wetlands, various communal lounge areas, a dining room, and recreational facilities. Staff provide trained, qualified care in a setting small enough for personalised attention but large enough to ensure safety and security.
