MYALL LODGE,
HAWKS NEST
You’re
Welcome
Myall Lodge is situated at Hawks Nest in
the Great Lakes. Established in July 1992,
the Village is a picturesque oasis surrounded
by native bushland.
We seek to make your experience warm and
inviting, from our homelike exterior architecture,
to our comfortable community areas and
bedrooms to our exceptional outdoor gardens
and landscaping. Look around and you’ll notice
points of interest throughout the residence. And
of course, there are always the friendly smiling
faces of our staff to ensure that each day spent
here is a welcome one.
RSL LifeCare has been caring for and serving
seniors since 1911. Founders William Wood and
Stephen Stack started with a simple vision — to
look after and give the best to war veterans who
needed assistance. Today, we are open to all
Australians and are one of the most experienced
and innovative providers of senior living services
in the world.
Life is what you make it. At RSL LifeCare,
we believe no two people are alike and we
understand that the services each senior
requires are never exactly the same. We call
this our resident-centered approach to living.
It begins with the senior and his or her needs.
It results in choices—choices about day-to-day
living, service and care options. In this way, we
help maintain the independence and dignity
of our residents and provide the best possible
lifestyle and service options.
Our approach has made RSL LifeCare one of the
largest and most comprehensive senior living
providers in the country. At RSL LifeCare, we
provide our residents with the highest standard,
quality aged care services in the land. Residents
become a part of our family, while receiving visits
from their own.

and peace of mind. Emergency call buttons
are located in every room if you require urgent
attention. Accommodation comprises a generous
sized bed/sitting room with private bathroom,
heating and emergency call button. There are
community lounges and dining rooms.
Friendly staff liaise with residents, providing care
and companionship. We aim to assist all residents
to maintain as much independence as possible.
The type and amount of care a person receives is
dependent on what is needed to maintain his or her
lifestyle and includes assistance with basic activities
of daily living (eating, bathing and grooming, toilet
help, dressing, transport, etc) in which a resident
may require help or supervision. Skilled Care is
provided for those who need medical or nursing
care or rehabilitative services for the rehabilitation
of injured, disabled or sick persons.
All our residential aged care services provide
assistance with daily activities. Specialist dementia
care accommodation gives residents the best
quality life in a safe and supportive environment. A
personalised activities program is also available to
all residents.

RSL ANZAC VILLAGE, NARRABEEN
Our History
RSL LifeCare is a charitable organisation that was
formed in 1911 to provide care and service to war
veterans. Services were initially provided at Bare
Island, Botany Bay, until moving to Narrabeen in 1939.
From small beginnings providing care and service to
just a handful of war veterans, the organisation has
grown to be one of the largest senior living services
in Australia.
