Welcome

Ashfield Baptist Homes Limited is a not for profit organisation operated by Ashfield Baptist Church. Its purpose is to provide care based on Christian principles for people in the Inner West of Sydney. Bethel Nursing Home and A H Orr Lodge are residential aged care services operated by Ashfield Baptist Homes Limited

Ashfield Baptist Homes was established in 1950 under the leadership of Reverend Harry Orr. Operations began with just 23 residents in August of that year and by 1997 ABH had transformed into the 2 facility, 136 bed, modern, comfortable and high tech operation that it is today.

The facility includes open courtyards and pleasant surroundings offering a high standard of accommodation. Residents receive excellent care and can participate in services such as group outings, organised tours, holidays, activities, beauty services and chaplain services.

‘I’m really living here, where before (I moved in) I was existing and trying to be happy… ABH is what all nursing homes should be… I am provided with the best of care in a lovely environment.’

Resident of ABH

‘I am happy and content here. I am provided with the best of care in a lovely environment, safe and secure in the knowledge that I am receiving the very best of care by staff who are very dedicated and kind. ABH is a perfect example of a home away from home. I feel very privileged and so proud to be a resident.’
