Cosy and comfortable, our residential care home in Clare is called Carinya, an Aboriginal word meaning ‘happy, peaceful home’.
Carinya has been part of the Clare Valley for more than half a century. It was first established in 1954 by the local branch of the Country Women’s Association and became part of the Helping Hand family in 2002.
One of the things that makes Carinya so special is its proximity to the social, retail and cultural heart of the Clare Valley. Clare’s bustling main street with its shops, cafés, public library and places of heritage interest is just around the corner. It’s a great place to catch up with family and friends and stay connected to what’s happening in the community.
Carinya is supported by an active volunteer group and a dedicated team of volunteers who arrange activities such as craft, bingo, bowls, exercise therapy, men’s group activities and concerts and weekly bus excursions.
Residents are encouraged to personalise their room by bringing special items such as photos or a favourite chair or lamp. They can also bring a small collection of plants and care for them in the community garden or in their private patio area.
Carinya accommodates fifty residents, and features include:
single rooms with ensuite
on-site parking
library
unisex hair salon
gardens inspired by the local farming community with fruit trees, seasonal vegetables and herbs
