About Us

East Grampians Health Service is based in Ararat and Willaura (Regional Victoria) and takes its name from the magnificent mountain range that provides a backdrop to both townships.  We are committed to providing quality care and services that meet the needs of the community, whilst continuously striving for improvement and aiming to lead the way in provision of health related services:

Garden View Court is a 24 bed residential aged care facility. Our aged care services focus on the individual, their family, friends and community. Individualised care is assured by identifying the resident’s personal preferences and interest in all areas across the social and clinical spectrum. We have adopted the Montessori environment to provide purpose and stimulation through everyday activities.  This approach supports our residents to live their lives to the fullest and make the most of the services we have to offer.
