Welcome to Springhaven Lodge
Comprehensive Care, When You Need It
Springhaven Lodge in Kojonup was established in 1982 and now as part of the Hall & Prior Health & Aged Care Group, is a small country facility dedicated to providing compassionate residential aged care for its rural-based community.
The facility, which has a homely, welcoming atmosphere, encourages residents to remain as independent for as long as possible. There are 22 ensuite rooms, all with access to a verandah and each looking out onto the surrounding gardens.
Situated in the centre of town and next door to Kojonup Hospital and Kojonup Spring, Springhaven Lodge offers 24-hour care provided seven days by a multidisciplinary team of registered nurses, carers, therapy staff including an occupational therapist and physiotherapist and hospitality staff.
In addition to the facility staff, General Practitioners, mental health staff and the specialist palliative care team visit regularly. Other health professionals including a podiatrist, dietician and speech pathologist attend the facility.
There is also an in-house hairdressing salon as well as a commercial kitchen and laundry. There is a communal vegetable garden which residents are able to help maintain and there is a weekly church service for those residents who wish to participate on Wednesdays.

The Springhaven Lodge Benefits
From the care we provide to the relationships we build.
For your peace of mind, we provide 24-hour care with a dedicated team of registered nurses and personal carers. We have the expertise to assist with complex care requirements and will always discuss your care with you and your family.
In recognition of our very high standards of care and services, Springhaven Lodge has been fully accredited by the Australian Government meeting all 42 of the expected outcomes.
Staying active and socialising is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Our activity program changes each month, but will always include bus trips and outings, arts and crafts, movie days and theme days and focuses on maintaining connection with the Kojonup community. We have a number of volunteers supporting our home and have regular musical performances, fetes, raffles and visits from school groups.
Friends and relatives are welcome to visit at any time and can catch up over a cup of tea in one of our comfortable lounges or shady outdoor areas.
Your room will be furnished for you, but we encourage you to bring personal belongings such as photographs and soft furnishings to help make it your home. There are television sets that you can watch in our common rooms, but you are welcome to bring you own television or radio if you wish.
Enjoying a variety of delicious, nutritionally-balanced meals is an important part of maintaining good health. From our fresh kitchen, our chef, and dietician create menus that provide variety and maximum nutritional value without compromising on taste. We offer choices of hot and cold meals, cater for allergies, intolerances and culturally-specific needs, and create a special menu for a theme day each month.
