Our Care Community is warm and welcoming, set among nearby parkland, reserves and the Greenvale Reservoir, just 30 minutes north of the Melbourne CBD. A feature of our well-appointed Care Community is a central courtyard, a peaceful place to socialise with friends and family, or enjoy moments of quiet reflection. We have a memory care neighbourhood which provides a safe and inclusive environment for residents who are living with dementia. Our diverse mix of cultural heritage is a point of connection for residents and team, and our companion model of care fosters a sense of family and belonging among residents.

Our experienced leadership work alongside a capable and confident team to offer residential aged care, palliative care, dementia care and respite care. Allied health professionals also visit regularly. Our memory care neighbourhood provides an environment custom-designed to support the individual needs of residents who are living with dementia. We recognise that understanding the big and the little details about how you like to live each day is important to us – so that we can help you feel at home, have the right support and live your best life in our care.
Daily living at Meadow Heights
Our Care Community is a happy and loving place for people from all walks of life. When the sun’s out residents put their green thumbs to work in our raised garden beds and enjoy harvesting the fresh produce for our chef to cook up delicious cuisine from around the world. Our resident-run Hands of Friendship program helps new residents to adapt to life in our Care Community, and there is plenty to do with arts, craft and music all popular pastimes.
It’s an environment where you’re free to enjoy your interests, independently or with others, continue to learn and try new things, and participate in Meadow Heights life –so you can enjoy your day, your way.

A place where you will feel at home
Baptcare Brookview Community is a residential aged care community for older people who need more care than they can receive at home. It is an inclusive community and we value every person. Residents can socialise at our regular activities and in our lovely shared areas. Or you can spend time in your own room, which is very spacious. We want our residents to feel respected and comfortable as soon as they enter our community so that it truly feels like home.
Great design for easy living
Brookview is directly beside Broadmeadows Valley Park. There are lovely views of trees through the large windows and all of the rooms have lots of natural light. Residents’ rooms are in small groups that share dining rooms and lounge spaces. This makes it feel homely as you will see the same group of people regularly. And it makes it easy to get to meals from your room. There is also a ‘winter garden’ walkway that links parts of the community. It has a comfortable seating area, which is a lovely place to sit and watch the world go by.
Live the way you want
How you live your life at Brookview is up to you. If you want to join in with activities, there are always lots of games and exercises on offer. But if you would rather sit somewhere quiet or watch TV, you can do that instead. We even talk to our residents to find out what they want on the menu. And when it comes to little things, like if you want to sleep in one morning, our staff support those choices.
Corpus Christi Community Greenvale offers a safe haven and support to marginalised older men who have experienced homelessness, battled addiction, or face complex health challenges. We strive to provide them with a fresh start, one that is safe, secure, and ingrained with a sense of independence, all within a vibrant community.
