How Gordon homes score on each measure
An overall rating is built from four separate measures. Averages for the homes here, next to the national average, so you can see where this area is genuinely strong and where to ask harder questions.
| Measure | Gordon | National | What it covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Residents' experience | 4 | 3.63 | how residents themselves rated life in the home, collected in face-to-face interviews. It is the closest thing to asking the people who live there. |
| Compliance | 5 | 4.82 | whether the home has met its regulatory obligations. Almost every home scores well here, so a low score is a genuine warning sign rather than a small ding. |
| Staffing | 3.33 | 3.25 | how much registered nurse and total care time each resident actually receives against the government's targets. |
| Quality measures | 4 | 3.04 | clinical outcomes the home reports, such as pressure injuries, falls, medication management and unplanned weight loss. |

Fees are set nationally, not by suburb, so the structure is the same in Gordon as anywhere in Australia: a basic daily fee of $66.80 a day (as at 20 March 2026) that everyone pays, a means-tested care fee based on your income and assets, and an accommodation payment set by each individual home. That last one is where Gordon homes will differ from each other, and it is the number to ask for in writing. Non-clinical contributions are capped over a lifetime at $137,917.01.

The 3 rated homes average 4.33 out of 5, compared with 3.89 across New South Wales and 3.83 nationally. Ratings are published by the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing, not by CareShortlist, and the spread between individual homes matters far more than the local average.

On top of that sits a means-tested care fee set by your income and assets, and an accommodation payment that each home sets individually, paid as a refundable lump sum, a daily payment, or a mix. Lifetime contributions are capped at $137,917.01.
Do I have to choose a home in Gordon itself?
No. You can enter any home in Australia that has a place available and accepts your assessment. Families often look a few suburbs wider to find the right fit, which is why we show everything within 20 km of Gordon as well.
What is the first step to arranging care in Gordon?
An assessment through My Aged Care (myagedcare.gov.au or 1800 200 422). Nothing is government funded until that assessment is done, and the queue moves slowly, so applying early is the single most useful thing you can do. You can shortlist homes while you wait.
