Regis Delphi House - Belmore

Regis Delphi House overflows with fascinating culture, heritage and personality. This intimate residence set in the heart of Belmore is a rich representation of community in the deepest sense.

Delphi's simple and welcoming space is a celebration of the wonderful cultural diversity in Sydney's suburban south west, particularly Mediterranean Greek.

Visit on any day and you're likely to experience a snapshot of Greek festivities, including a spread of mouth-watering traditional Greek foods like dolmades and baklava, cooked to perfection and brought in by Greek families and friends from the wider community.

We're proud of the colour and character of our 72 bed heritage home. We love its high ceilings which echo with activities and animated conversation. This older building was originally a maternity hospital in the 1920s and still carries a life-giving ambience to this day.

Delphi is appropriately named considering about half our residents are Greek speaking. To make them feel fully at home we have numerous Greek speaking staff too.

All our residents know each other and are pleased to enjoy close connections through the Greek community.

Delphi also has a close connection with the Greek Orthodox Church and encourages families to visit twice a week for special cultural gatherings and traditional meals. These occasions are wonderfully indulgent and boisterous affairs.

Activities embellish our festive events, with plenty of exercises, movies and games. We are currently developing an exciting new program of behavioural and dementia-specific activities which will add even more to the quality of life for our residents in the near future.

Delphi has two lounge areas and a large courtyard where we all gather together for barbecues. On these occasions the men love to help cook while the ladies sit and chat together. It's very nice to hear the different languages mingling together and watch our residents finding common ground in friendship.

Delphi House residents are also able to take advantage of the following services on offer:

* regular church service
* massage therapy
* visiting library service
* experienced in-house chef and catering staff
* special dietary requirements met

Residents receive all the benefits of the Regis Group's living care model of responsive support provided by leading professionals and tailored to individual medical, cultural and religious preferences.
