Warrina village gets a make-over<br />

Private landscaped gardens, naturally lit living<br />

spaces, private ensuites and freshly painted rooms<br />

with a choice of finishes, are all part of the grand plan<br />

for a major renovation at Warrina Village.<br />

words MELAniE KELL<br />

warrina ViLLaGe at arV in Castle<br />

Hill is 40 years old and about to undergo<br />

a major facelift. By the time the works are<br />

completed in 2014 the residents’ lounge<br />

and cafe will be repositioned to catch the<br />

sun, overlooking landscaped gardens,<br />

while the servery will be moved to the<br />

western side of the building.<br />

amber Vega, Facility Manager at<br />

warrina Village, said the renovations are<br />

welcome. “warrina Village was designed<br />

and constructed in the seventies. since<br />

then arV’s care philosophy has changed,<br />

as have our residents’ needs. when the<br />

renovations are complete, every resident<br />

will have a private ensuite.”<br />

with each wing of the village<br />

positioned among private gardens,<br />

amber said all residents will enjoy a<br />

pleasant outlook from inside their rooms<br />

and some will have direct access to the<br />

gardens. indoors, new technology will<br />

deliver access to computers, private<br />

phones and digital television.<br />

arV launched the renovation concept<br />

with a display room at warrina Village:<br />

residents and their family members<br />

enjoyed a private viewing and were then<br />

asked to provide feedback. residents can<br />

choose from a selection of colours and<br />

finishes for their new accommodation.<br />

works start in august and will be<br />

managed wing by wing, enabling<br />

residents to remain in the village<br />

throughout the process. the transformed<br />

warrina Village will accommodate 129<br />

residents, and will be better equipped for<br />

residents as they age.<br />
