A Lifetime Of Care Since 1944, BaptistCare has been caring for people. We are proud of our centres, our grounds and our activities - but most of all, we are proud of our community. This is what makes BaptistCare special. We are a community of people who respect one another’s independence and individuality, while understanding the importance of support and friendship. As a Christian not-for-profit organisation, our focus is outstanding care and a quest to truly make a
difference. This extends to our work in community housing, support for women and children escaping domestic violence and commitment to assisting people in need throughout the community. You can be sure we are passionate about life-transforming care because we practise it every day, in countless ways. This is the BaptistCare difference. We’re here, Because we care.

Your Life At Mid Richmond MyTeam MyTeam is all about improving quality of life. It is care that focusses on connecting with you, knowing your story and supporting you to live a meaningful life. Residents, families and consistent team members are all partners in MyTeam. This means the same group of team members provide personal care for the same residents, every day they work. Each team will be better placed to understand the needs and preferences of those residents in their care, so they can support their choices.
Lifestyle At any age, it’s important to have meaning and purpose, and to have fun. Our lifestyle coordinators create varied activity calendars to help you stay both physically and mentally active, including exercise programs, crafts, games, live entertainment, outings, concerts and celebrations for special occasions. There’s something for everyone.

Surrounded by open farmyard and adjacent the golf course, our Mid Richmond centre is a country-style home, full of natural light, panoramic views, intimate courtyards and picturesque gardens. Life at Mid Richmond can be as peaceful or as lively as you make it. A close knit community, there’s always someone ready for a chat or an activity to join. When you want to relax, you can grab a book from the library and head to the gardens where you might even spot a cow or two from the neighbouring farm. If you like to stay fit the golf course is just next door. When you want to go out there are shops, clubs, and churches nearby.
Dining You’ll love our home-style meals and your friends and family are welcome to join. For family gathering our BBQ alfresco area provides the perfect spot to entertain and our hairdresser can help you look your best for the occasion.
“I feel as though I’m at home. I’m always treated with respect.”

Palliative Care Using our ‘Affirm, Balance, Comfort’ approach, we discuss your choices with you and your family on admission and throughout your stay. This allows us to adapt your care plan to suit your changing needs and brings great comfort to you and your family, as everyone will clearly know and be involved in decisions around end of life care. Chaplaincy Care As a Christian not-for-profit organisation, our purpose is to respect and care for you. That’s why our chaplains are here to support you through life’s challenges and experiences, whatever your beliefs and however you express your spirituality. They’ll spend time getting to know you, offer friendship, and be there to support you in times of need.
Tucked away in a quiet corner of the Richmond Valley, BaptistCare Mid Richmond projects a feeling of friendliness and homeliness you’ll notice the moment you walk through the door. We have 40 general care rooms and 9 dementia care rooms in our secure memory care centre. 7
