Townview, Queensland

The Society for the Mount Isa Memorial Garden Settlement for the Aged · Small home · Not for Profit

Overall Star Rating

Ranked 2 of 2 in North West

The five ratings

Four measures combine into the overall rating. Residents' experience is worth a third of it.

Overall Good
Residents’ experience Good
Compliance Excellent
Staffing Improvement needed
Quality measures Acceptable

Worth knowing: no home in Australia holds an overall rating below 3 stars, and 69% sit on exactly 4 — so the overall star is a weak way to tell homes apart. The individual measures above, and the numbers below, do the real work.

Staffing

Every home has a mandated minimum of care minutes per resident per day. This is what it actually delivered.

Total care minutes per day 192 target 193 -1 min
Registered nurse minutes 78 target 39 +39 min
