Start the day with a morning brew overlooking our leafy gardens from your private veranda or take a sunny stroll along our pathways as you relish a slow-paced and peaceful life at Blue Care Bundaberg Riverlea Aged Care Facility.
Express your creative self at our regular paint and sip classes, releasing your inner Picasso as you sip a refreshing juice. Our live concerts fill the halls with toe-tapping tunes – join in the fun and dancing or simply listen from your room. Get up close to a chicken and nurture a lamb when the local animal farm pays a visit. Our minibus can take you on a trip to the beach, movies or shopping.
Our home is warm and inviting with plenty of cosy indoor space for your family and friends to visit for quality time, chats and laughs. For fresh country air and blue skies, head outside to the barbecue area and courtyards. Families and loved ones can also stay connected with our CareApp, which provides photos, videos and audio of special moments, plus notices, events and newsletters.

The result: A menu created just for you, based on your choices, that is nutritious and safe to eat.
Our experienced staff offer 24-hour support and are dedicated to providing high-quality healthcare to improve physical and emotional wellbeing. We’d love to welcome you home to Blue Care Riverlea.
