Permanent residential aged care in Brisbane and Gold Coast
Superior Care Group has provided permanent residential aged care in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast since 1979. Both our residences — Wellington Park in Brisbane and Merrimac Park on the Gold Coast — offer private rooms with ensuites, 24-hour nursing care, individualised care plans, and a full range of lifestyle and wellbeing programmes tailored to each resident’s needs.
Dementia Care
Living with dementia is a complex and deeply personal journey — for the resident and their family. At Superior Care Group, our goal is to ensure every resident living with dementia feels respected, safe, and genuinely valued in a warm and supportive environment.
Our staff are trained in dementia-specific care and person-centred practice, with a clinical approach focused on maintaining dignity and minimising the use of chemical intervention. Our clinical team works closely with public mental health services to ensure residents receive compassionate, appropriate support throughout every stage of their condition — at both our Brisbane and Gold Coast residences.
Nursing and Support Services
Our nursing and support services include physiotherapy and allied health support, ensuring residents receive consistent, person-centred clinical care at both our Brisbane and Gold Coast residences. Registered Nurses are available on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week — delivering professional care tailored to each resident’s individual needs.
Superior Care Group operates in compliance with the Commonwealth Government’s Mandatory Minimum Care Minutes requirements, giving families the assurance that residents at both Wellington Park in Brisbane and Merrimac Park on the Gold Coast receive the direct care time they are entitled to under Australian aged care legislation.
Palliative Care
Superior Care Group provides palliative care at both our Brisbane and Gold Coast residences, supporting residents and their families through the end-of-life journey with dignity, compassion, and respect. Our care team is trained in palliative care and pain management, working closely with public health palliative care support services to ensure seamless, compassionate clinical support throughout.
We understand that palliative care affects the whole family, not just the resident. Our approach is focused on comfort, pain management, and meaningful family involvement at every stage — with personalised care plans developed in consultation with the resident, their family, and our clinical team. Palliative care residents remain in their own private room throughout, avoiding the distress of relocation.
Respite Care
Superior Care Group offers respite care at both our Brisbane and Gold Coast residences — including emergency respite for unexpected situations, planned respite for carer relief, and short-term stays for families considering permanent care. Respite care gives family carers a genuine break, with the confidence that their loved one is receiving professional, compassionate support throughout their stay.
Respite residents have full access to our facilities, meals, nursing care, and lifestyle activities — the same experience as our permanent residents from day one. Many families find that a short-term respite stay at Wellington Park or Merrimac Park leads naturally to a permanent placement, as they experience the quality of care and community first-hand.
Supported Residents
Superior Care Group welcomes supported and partially-supported residents at both our Brisbane and Gold Coast residences. Supported residents are those whose aged care fees are based on their pension income rather than a full Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD). Supported places are subject to availability and government means-testing through Services Australia.
We believe financial circumstances should never be a barrier to quality residential aged care. All supported residents at Wellington Park in Brisbane and Merrimac Park on the Gold Coast receive the same standard of nursing care, meals, lifestyle activities, and accommodation as full-fee residents — without exception.
