Testimonials
"What a pleasant surprise to hear from you again- and to be able to speak with Mum. We are happy for Mum that she is in a caring environment. Both Wally and Moya speak highly of the care that Mum receives at “Acacia” and how Mum values the friendship of the staff. We were very pleased to hear that Mum enjoyed the “Hillsong” concert recently; and let’s hope the weather starts to settle soon."
