26 residents at a Sydney nursing home were assessed for smoke inhalation after a fire broke out at Greystanes last Tuesday.
The fire was traced back to a laundry where it was quickly contained by firefighters. Its believed to have started in a washing machine.
It follows the previous week when $300,000 of damage was caused to a retirement village unit in Adelaide when tea towels were left on a push-button stove by a resident.
This is the sixth fire in a village in 2016 that we know of. Fortunately nobody was injured.
