Residents and their guests can enjoy the main dining room, lounge area, common kitchen and dining room area, two spacious verandas, and onsite Village Manager office.
The RSL LifeCare Nowra Community masterplan, goes beyond just retirement living. With RSL LifeCare at Home services available, the purpose-built RSL LifeCare Nowra Veteran Wellbeing Centre, and the Jonathan Rogers GC House residential aged care home on-site, comprehensive health and wellbeing support is readily accessible.

Features such as L-shaped kitchens, private front entrances, and spacious balconies contribute to the practicality and comfort of these weatherboard homes, which are also pet-friendly. Importantly, they also offer security, including a nurse call system for peace of mind.
In addition to the amenities and living spaces, Dumaresq Retirement Village offers a range of tailored services through RSL LifeCare at Home, including domestic assistance, transportation, flexible respite and personal care. The dedicated local RSL LifeCare at Home team understands the unique needs of each resident and is committed to providing personalised support and guidance, including assistance with navigating government funding systems.

With the integration of the Nowra Veteran Wellbeing Centre, Home Care services and the Jonathan Rogers GC House aged care home, RSL LifeCare Nowra Community redefines the concept of comprehensive care and support within a vibrant community. This expansion reflects our unwavering dedication to providing veterans’ and seniors’ with an elevated lifestyle, surrounded by natural beauty, and supported by an all-encompassing network of services.”
The RSL LifeCare Nowra Veteran Wellbeing Centre (NVWC) is a veteran-centric community facility that offers important services for veterans and their families. Together with charity partner RSL NSW, RSL LifeCare offers everything from financial assistance and referrals too legal aid to counselling; the NVWC provides comprehensive practical and emotional support to veterans, improving their wellbeing and overall quality of life.
