St Luke's Care
Established in 1919, we are proud our culture of extra care continues to thrive with each new generation of carers at St Luke's. Our longevity is built on community foundations and the mandate to deliver quality care with a personal touch.
St Luke’s Private Hospital first began in the beautiful home ‘Trebartha’. St Luke’s still stands on the same site today, now comprehensively redeveloped and extended, on Roslyn Street, Potts Point. The original building and land, and surrounding structures, such as the Lulworth House, were either donated to, or acquired by, St Luke’s over the years.
With the growth of the hospital, so too grew the need for space and therefore the hospital building was constructed in 1927.
Hemsley House was built in 1936 to meet the need of living quarters for nurses. Thanks to a bequest in 2014, Hemsley House was refurbished and now houses the St Luke’s Clinic. Some aspects of the original Trebartha building and its chapel are connected to Hemsley House.
In 1938, the Hospital acquired the nearby Lulworth House from the parents of Australian writer Patrick White, and converted it into a maternity wing. In 1968, Lulworth was transformed into operating theatres and administrative offices, then into an aged care facility in the early 1980s. By 2002, Lulworth House in Elizabeth Bay had been upgraded and extended with two additional floors. Today it offers the very best in residential care and also provides respite accommodation.
In 1993, St Luke’s Home Care was established to provide home-based services for those in need in the community.
From these beginnings, St Luke’s Care has grown to provide care to over 500 people every day through the Hospital, Lulworth House Aged Care, Home Care and Clinic. We continue to expand, diversify and adapt our services evolving in line with consumer and community needs.
St Luke's Care is a supportive and positive environment with a loyal and close-knit team. This is coupled by competitive remuneration, salary packaging benefits, great work-life balance and development benefits.
St Luke's strongly believes in and encourages the growth and development of our staff, both professionally and personally. We encourage, nurture and cultivate talent by partnering with employees on their development journey through coaching and mentoring.
The Human Resources team strive to deliver an exceptional employee experience by culturing the passion, commitment and a sense of purpose in line with the organisation's mission, vision and values.
