Mercy Place Ballarat is Mercy Health’s first purpose-built, state of the art facility that follows a new direction in aged care living.

Each of the 14 households with open plan lounge, dining and kitchen will be home to 8 residents living and participating in daily activities together. The home is connected to a village square at the entry level with a café, grocer, hairdresser, wellness centre and chapel.
