Fee Structure
Mercy Community offers a variety of residential aged care accommodation options, all at various prices to suit the needs of our residents.
As in all our dealings with you, we act with great integrity regarding the financial aspects of your care. We aim to ensure transparency and informed financial consent.
For those reasons, we strongly encourage you and your family or representative to seek independent financial advice prior to entering into a resident agreement.
