Welcome to The Mariner. That’s the name Japara have come up with replace the name of its aged care facility South West Rocks in South West Rocks on the NSW Mid North Coast.

“Until April 2021, the aged care home never had its own name,” Japara said on YouTube.

Japara said it wanted the facility to have a name that would reflect the history of the local community and those who call South West Rocks their home.

Japara’s The Mariner offers permanent aged care services, short-term residential respite care and specialised dementia memory support.
