How St Vincent Care Services Boondall compares
St Vincent Care Services Boondall holds an overall Star Rating of 4 out of 5. That is above the QLD average of 3.89, and above the national average of 3.83. Nationally, 22% of rated homes score lower and 6% score higher, with the rest level with it. Most homes cluster on the same few scores, so a single star of difference is a bigger gap than it looks. With 10 funded places it is smaller than most (the national average is about 82).
Its strongest measure is staffing at 5 out of 5. Its weakest is compliance at 4, which covers 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. That is the area worth probing on a visit, and we have turned it into specific questions below.

|---|---|---|
| Residents' experience | 4 | 3.63 |
