Independent Living Units

People who need less care than that offered by aged care homes may wish to consider independent living units, or retirement villages. These residential communities offer a range of services for independent older people, and are regulated by state and territory governments.

Information about this type of accommodation can be obtained from Commonwealth Carelink Centres on 1800 052 222, or you can search on the Commonwealth Carelink Centres website.
