Everyday your way

Live your way in our Hastings aged care community

The Bays Aged Care is a welcoming community where we support each resident to maintain their interests, familiar routines and connections to the people and places they love.

Caring for locals

To offer a more personal living experience, this community is divided into smaller households that mirror the look and rhythm of home. Located on the Mornington Peninsula, The Bays Aged Care has spacious private suites, inviting lounge areas with fireplaces, and Carers who get to know you well. The landscaped outdoor spaces have established gardens, walking paths and courtyards.

Our difference

Everyday by your side

Our Carers and Nurses focus on you as a person, getting to know your story, likes and routine. We listen, respect your choices and support you to live your way, whatever that looks like to you. Our expert team is on-hand 24/7 to provide tailored care that matches your specific needs, delivered with kindness and compassion.

Everyday wellbeing

We support you to find comfort, enjoyment and meaning in your daily life. Our resident-driven Lifestyle Program includes a range of interesting activities and outings, there’s an on-site hairdresser, library and private family room, and we’ll help you maintain connections to the people and places you love. Residents are welcome to attend our on-site Church services and receive pastoral support.

Everyday spaces

The Bays Aged Care is divided into smaller households that are designed to feel like home. There are warm, welcoming lounge and dining spaces, each with their own fireplace and terrace or courtyard. Residents can enjoy all the pleasures of a traditional backyard, with flower beds, courtyards and established trees. Your light-filled suite can be furnished and decorated as you like, so it feels like a master bedroom.

Everyday home cooking

When it comes to food, there’s plenty of choice – just like home. Everything is freshly made in our own kitchens, and our nutritious, seasonal menus offer variety and family favourites. You can choose to join your neighbours for meals in our dining rooms, or enjoy them in the privacy of your own suite. Our vibrant on-site cafe is perfect for catching up with neighbours or loved ones.

Everyday for locals

We’re working hard to support The Bays Aged Care to continue to evolve and thrive, while preserving what makes it so special. Together with the wider community, we’re building a sustainable future for aged care in the Mornington Peninsular so locals can choose to remain living here as they age.
