Barossa Park has single and double rooms with ensuite bathrooms and built-in wardrobes.
Each room includes a bed, bedside table, TV, desk and visitor chair as a starting point – but this is your home, and we want you to feel that way!
We encourage you to bring photos and personal items to decorate and make the room your own.
Every room is spacious, comfortable and has a different outlook, you might prefer a courtyard room, or perhaps a view to Mount Wellington or the Derwent River.
You may be eligible to access respite care for up to six weeks – depending on your needs. Respite care can be planned in advance and is also available in emergencies.

Residents, staff, pets, volunteers, family and friends all help to create an atmosphere that is welcoming and fun.
We have everything you need, all in the one place, and there’s always something happening at OneCare’s Barossa Park Village.
Our green courtyard spaces are filled with plants and flowers, the ideal place to have a chat with friends or perhaps steal some ‘me’ time and put your head in a good book.

Leisure & Lifestyle
We are always looking for ways to create joy and happiness in the lives of our residents
Our leisure and lifestyle team proudly create a monthly calendar with activities to suit everyone.
From individual, tailored opportunities to large group outings, there is always something happening. Lunch dates, counter meals, films and fishing trips are always a highlight, as well as art classes, live music, cooking, games, walking groups, gardening and even helping feed and care for our resident chickens.
We are known for our pet therapy programs and work with groups like the Tasmanian Greyhound Adoption Program. Their fortnightly visits are a highlight and filled with plenty of pats, kisses and hugs. We also have visits from animals great and small: cats, dogs, prize winning chickens and we’ve even had a pony come and say hello!
We enjoy posting photos and videos of our activities on our Facebook page!

Payment Options
Residents can choose to pay by a refundable deposit (RAD), a daily payment (DAP), or a combination of both.
Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD)
If you want to pay in a lump sum, you can choose this option. The amount is Government Guaranteed, which means it is fully refundable. If you have access to the full amount as a one-off payment, you can save on interest costs.
Or you can pay in a combination of both RAD and the daily payment.
Daily Accommodation Payment (DAP)
The DAP is a great option if you don’t have access to a the full amount up front. This amount is calculated based on the cost times the current government interest rate and divided by the number of days in the year.
The base cost is refundable but the interest you pay is not.
