Creating a homely environment for aged care homes

At MACG, we are proud to be different. We are dedicated to creating a homelike experience for all our residents across our 9 homes in Melbourne and Victoria. When it comes to aged care homes, Melbourne's finest are at MACG.

We're a family owned business, so family values are at the core of everything we do. Unlike other aged care nursing homes, we build strong, long-term relationships with all our residents, their families, and our team.

What can we do for you?

We're happy to help you with any questions you have.

A relationship-focused approach to aged care homes in Melbourne

Our approach to aged care is about building relationships and creating the best environment for physical and emotional wellbeing. For residential aged care services, we work together as equals to make sure all your needs are met.

Most of our residential aged care Melbourne homes have a smaller number of beds, so we can get to know all our residents personally. This creates a homelike and welcoming atmosphere, and your care is centred around your unique needs and preferences.

The fun stuff

Our residential aged care homes offer a range of services to support residents’ health, lifestyle, and wellbeing. We’re committed to improving each resident’s quality of life throughout our aged care homes in Melbourne by offering activities such as cooking classes, gardening, and pet therapy. As well as keeping residents active, these programs also provide a chance to socialise and have fun.

As well as lifestyle programs, we also provide professional care and emotional support through our range of wellbeing services.
