ABOUT US

We are Scalabrini Village. As a not-for-profit (or for-purpose), Catholic aged care organisation, Scalabrini puts resident needs first. We are not driven by profit maximisation and we are not guided by cost-cutting or revenue. Instead, we continuously invest back into our villages, to maintain our position as the aged care choice for migrant communities across New South Wales.

With a tradition of community, mutual help, faith and family, Scalabrini offers the provision of excellent care to the aged population and people living with dementia, delivered with a profound sense of respect for all cultures. We have six aged care villages across NSW, including five within the Sydney Metro area and the sixth located in regional NSW.
