Worth knowing here
Glen Eira has one home rated five stars overall, Victoria by the Park, out of only 9 across Greater Melbourne's 407 rated homes.
The staffing rating is one star, the lowest possible, at Bupa Caulfield, so ask that home how many registered nurses are rostered at night and at weekends.
Warrawee Nursing Home is government-run (by Glen Eira City Council), one of only 13 government-run homes in Greater Melbourne.
Quality measures (falls, pressure injuries, unplanned weight loss and medication) are rated one star at HammondCare - Caulfield Village, HammondCare - The Glens and Bupa Caulfield, so ask what each is doing about the measure that pulled its rating down.
Registered nurse minutes, a target separate from total care minutes, were below target at Bupa Caulfield in January to March 2026, which matters most if your family member has complex nursing needs.
