Akooramak Care of Older Persons
Overview
Akooramak Care of Older Persons is a community-owned, not-for-profit aged care provider serving Warwick and the Southern Downs. Operated by the Warwick Benevolent Society, which was established in 1876, Akooramak has a long history of supporting older members of the community through residential aged care, dementia care, respite care and home care services. Its mission is to provide quality residential and community aged care while remaining locally owned and governed.
Why This Matters
Families arranging a funeral are often also facing decisions about the future care of a surviving spouse or family member.
Akooramak provides a comprehensive range of aged care services including:
- Permanent residential aged care
- Residential respite care
- Dementia-specific care
- Home care services
- Palliative and end-of-life care
- Support navigating My Aged Care
As a locally governed organisation, Akooramak has deep roots in the Warwick community and is committed to supporting older people to remain connected with their families and local area.
MyRest Recommendation
Akooramak is one of MyRest’s preferred aged care providers for the Warwick district.
Its community ownership, long history and strong local focus make it an excellent option for families considering either residential aged care or support to remain living independently at home. We particularly appreciate the organisation’s willingness to assist families in understanding the aged care system, even if they ultimately choose another provider.
