Opened in mid-2024, Brightwater’s world-class campus is purpose-built to support people with Huntington’s disease.
Piara Waters was co-designed with families, allied health, advocacy and clinical organisations to ensure residents with Huntington’s disease experience excellent standards of care and the highest quality of life.
Piara Waters’ residential campus includes 21 bedrooms and ensuites in seven houses, each with specialist assistive equipment and leading-edge technology. The homes in this exclusive Huntington’s disease gated community are certified Specialist Disability Accommodation for people with extreme functional impairment or very high needs.
Each private room is designed for purpose and comfort, with a personal TV and built-in cabinetry with storage. Rooms are accessibility enabled and prepared for hoist installation if necessary. The contemporary layout provides personal privacy and light touch support from staff, while fostering a sense of community with neighbours in shared living spaces.
Residents enjoy a sensory garden with zones for living, relaxing and socialising. Plenty of parking to encourage visitors and security features at key entry points provide peace of mind for residents, their families and friends.
A collaborative approach is used to ensure residents at Piara Waters remain involved in their own care along with input from family and friends. Support includes:
| Piara Waters Referral Form | Piara Waters Fees and Charges | Piara Waters Family Flyer |
| Piara Waters Service Delivery Model | Piara Waters Support Coordinator Flyer |
