A spot of gardening in the morning and a relaxing spa bath therapy session in the afternoon – life at Blue Care Bundaberg Pioneer Aged Care Facility is about feeling nurtured, happy and encouraged to thrive.
Regular morning walks (or should that be talks?) are a great way to start the day, and there is space for you to tend to your own garden. Indulge in a peaceful life and pretty view from your own private veranda. Spend time with your friends and family in the barbecue area and large gazebo – they will love the open, airy feel of the sprawling grounds. You’ll find plenty of relaxation areas with comfy lounge chairs and kitchenettes scattered throughout, so it’s easy to grab a coffee and a snack.
Unwind by soaking in our therapy spa bath while you listen to soft music, followed by a massage – your mind and body will thank you. Live music concerts are a must on the social calendar; or express yourself while learning new skills at arts and craft sessions. If you feel like getting out and about, our minibus can take you to the movies or shops. We have activities to suit all personalities – we want you to enjoy the things you love.
Families and loved ones can stay connected with our CareApp, which provides photos, videos and audio of special moments, plus notices, events and newsletters.

Meet the Team
Jayden Post
Personal Carer
I have been part of the Pioneer team since 2014. What I really love about working here is being able to help people achieve what they can't do themselves and when they smile I know I am doing something right.
Lynelle Webber
Senior Administration Officer
I have been working at Pioneer since 1999. My role is perfect for me because I really enjoy administration, numbers and a challenge! In my spare time, I like to sew and make special cakes and sugar biscuits for my grandchildren.
Nicole King
Clinical Nurse
I have been with Blue Care since 2013. My love of helping people is the reason I pursued a career in nursing. I really enjoy getting to know and understand the residents here at Pioneer, and it is really satisfying being able to support them too.
