St. Basil's Homes is an outreach of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia that provides residential services for the aged. St. Basil's Homes was established in 1969. A number of residencies are located in a complex in Lakemba, New South Wales. These include the St. Basil's Nursing Home, the Olive Grove Special Dementia Section, the Lourantos Village, and Sister Dorothea Village. Additionally, facilities have been added in Miranda.

In addition to the residential services St. Basil's Homes maintains a Day Care Centre that provides respite services for dementia sufferers and their families.
