Special features of The Mornington Centre include:
- 20 double and 20 single rooms all with ensuites.
- Lifting apparatus in 12 of the patient rooms and ensuites to assist staff with the transfer of dependant patients from bed to chair or bed to bathroom.
- A number of consultation rooms on each floor for one-on-one or group therapy as required.
