Why Dutch residents feel at home with us
We understand that care isn’t just about health but also connection, identity, and tradition. That’s why our Dutch-friendly nursing home in Melbourne provides bilingual staff, culturally inspired activities, and opportunities to celebrate Dutch heritage. With guidance from the Aged Care Quality Standards, we ensure every resident feels safe, respected, and at home.
Everyday touches of Dutch life
Conversations in Dutch
Hearing your first language each day makes life feel more natural. Our Dutch-speaking staff help residents share stories, express their needs, and connect comfortably.
Food inspired by the Netherlands
Meals include comforting dishes like stamppot, pea soup (erwtensoep), croquettes, and sweet treats such as poffertjes. These flavours connect residents with memories of home and family.
Faith and reflection
Many Dutch families value Christian traditions. We provide space for prayer and reflection and welcome local pastors to support residents in continuing their faith practices.
Special occasions
From Koningsdag (King’s Day) to Sinterklaas and Christmas, residents participate in cultural celebrations that honour Dutch heritage meaningfully.
Music, games, and memories
Residents enjoy Dutch music, films, and books, alongside activities such as sjoelen (shuffleboard) and storytelling, which help keep traditions alive.
A community for all cultures
While we celebrate Dutch traditions, Oxa Care welcomes residents from all backgrounds. Diversity enriches our home, and our staff receive cultural awareness training to ensure inclusive and compassionate care.
Personalised care details
We record how each resident prefers to be addressed and weave those preferences into daily care, so every interaction feels natural and familiar.
Ενημέρωση των οικογενειών
Families receive updates in Dutch or English in ways that suit them best, such as calls, visits, or written notes. This ensures everyone feels connected and supported.
Daily rhythm at our Dutch nursing home
Life in our Dutch aged care facility balances care with culture, comfort, and companionship. Each day is thoughtfully shaped so residents can enjoy meaningful routines while staying connected to their heritage.

Let’s talk about residential care that feels like family
Every Dutch family understands the importance of being surrounded by people who respect traditions, language, and values. At Oxa Care, our coordinators take time to listen to your story and show you how the move into residential aged care can be supportive, personal, and reflective of Dutch culture.
Celebrating Dutch heritage together
We know traditions shape identity, comfort, and belonging. That’s why our Dutch retirement villages celebrate the occasions and practices that matter most.
National days and holidays
Events like Koningsdag and Sinterklaas are marked with decorations, music, and food that bring joy and pride to residents.
Community partnerships
We maintain close links with local Dutch cultural groups and churches, creating opportunities for visits, music, and intergenerational activities. The Ethnic Communities Council of Victoria (ECCV) also guides us in supporting CALD residents.
Shared culture
From Dutch films to traditional recipes, we bring culture into everyday life, so residents feel truly connected to their heritage.
Οι οικογένειες ως συνεργάτες στη φροντίδα
At Oxa Care, we know families play a vital role in decision-making and daily life. The Aged Care Diversity Framework highlights the importance of involving loved ones; we make that part of our care. Families are encouraged to:
- Visit regularly — with flexible hours and welcoming spaces for gatherings.
- Contribute to care planning — ensuring goals reflect cultural values.
- Join in celebrations — sharing important Dutch holidays and family milestones.
