The name Murrenda means ‘Life or Living’ which represents beautifully the culture and care model of the Home.

The Murrenda Home supports a range of resident care needs and contemporary models of care to provide a dementia-friendly environment. Residents are welcomed into a home-like environment where their independence, maintenance of friendships and participation in the local community will be encouraged. An open door philosophy will exist for family and friends to visit.
