About this home
Written by AI from our factsSt Vincent's Care Southport is an aged care home in Southport, in the Gold Coast council area of Queensland. It is run by St Vincent's Care, a church-based organisation, and is in a major city with 94 places. The operator publishes its room prices.
What this is based on
An AI model wrote these sentences from facts in the government's service list. When the model wrote them, a program checked that each sentence used only those facts, with no prices and no opinions. Each time this page is shown, every number in them, and whether they say the operator publishes room prices, is checked again against this page, and a sentence that no longer matches is left out.
- Sentence 1 uses: home name, suburb, council area, state
- Sentence 2 uses: operator, type of organisation (ABN register), remoteness, places
- Sentence 3 uses: whether room prices are published

How these prices were read
An AI model read the operator's page and listed each room with its maximum lump sum and daily payment. A program then kept a figure only if the exact words it came from are on the page, under that room's name, and contain that figure. A second model rechecks a sample, and any disagreement keeps a list off this site until a person looks.
A daily payment the operator neither prints nor works out in its own price calculator is shown as not published; we never work one out ourselves. A list more than a year old is not shown.
Rooms are listed as the operator lists them. Two rooms with the same name and different prices stay as two rows.

The room is the operator's own price, checked 7 Nov 2026. Means-tested fees are set by Services Australia after it assesses income and assets.
What it costs each month
Paying the whole room by daily payment, plus the basic daily fee. The top of each range adds the most the means test can charge. Pick a room to change the lump sum, add income and assets, and see what happens to the lump sum over five years.
