Accreditation
The Australian Aged Care Quality & Safety Commission (ACQSC) is a Commonwealth Government appointed organisation, responsible for monitoring provision of care, quality improvement and management of risk in all Australian accredited aged care facilities.
Darlingford is fully accredited until March 2027, at which time a new assessment will be completed. This is especially relevant for families entrusting their loved ones to our care.

Donations
If you would like to make a donation to Darlingford to help us to continue to improve the facilities and services we are able to provide to our residents, we would encourage you to do so by either contacting us via the following email darlingford@dugnh.com.au or phoning 03 5774 2711. Donations are tax deductible.
Some people prefer to make a bequest in their will, especially if they have had a loved one cared for at Darlingford or knew someone who had experienced end of life care here.
Every donation that is received at Darlingford, no matter how large or small, is sincerely appreciated. Without the ongoing support of generous individuals, groups, clubs, businesses and organisations, we would not be able to provide the little extras that really matter to our residents and make their lives here more comfortable and fulfilling.
If you have already made a bequest or donation, then the heartfelt thanks of the board, management and staff and most importantly, our residents, go to you.
We'd love to hear from you!
