Martin Luther Homes

Martin Luther Homes consist of a Retirement Village with 42 Independent Living Units, 18 Apartments, 4 Serviced Apartments and a Residential Care Facility with 88 beds. Our care services include dementia specific care. We are, therefore, able to offer our residents “ageing in place” where a progression from independent living to nursing home (high level) care is possible.

Our aged care facility’s objective is to provide professional aged care services predominantly, but not exclusively, to the German speaking community in a Christian (Lutheran) environment, which is designed to meet the requirements of each individual resident in a holistic manner.

Our architectural highlights include:

High quality landscaping including gardens, courtyards and walking paths.

Semi private and public spaces, and our Lutheran Church and Community Centre.

All residential care rooms are private rooms with private ensuite.

To enhance and promote a home like experience, 10 - 12 residential care rooms are located in a private a house design with its own kitchen and living room. All houses are interconnected.

An introduction to the Homes history:

The development of our facilities using the family home as a model, has proven to be very successful in giving our residents both quality of life and quality care.

Martin Luther Homes have been operating since the 1960’s.

We commenced residential care with a 31 bed Hostel. In 1996 we opened our Nursing Home and Dementia Unit with 12 and 11 beds respectively.

A further 15 bed nursing home and 15 bed dementia unit were opened in December 2000; seven more beds were added in 2003.

The Independent Living Units were built over the years, since 1969.

The facility is just a short drive away from the tourist towns of Belgrave, Sassafras, Olinda and Mount Dandenong.
