Find Care & Housing
I am in the US but my Mothers facility has memory care and they are in a special wing where they cant wander. A key fob is needed to get in and out and only staff can let someone in or out.

is there a facility like this in your area?

Panda, stick around. They will get you recommendations.

Can the phone be disabled? Numbers blocked?

We have at least two Aussie posters here; one is a retired lawyer. Let me ping them and see if they have any advice.

Who is paying for the phone? I would cancel the number.

Tried that. It only makes things worse. Legally nobody can take the phone away. I have tried blocking him from making calls but he totally loses it and starts using the wall phone intimidating the care staff

Talk with an attorney. This is not a place to seek legal advice.

Legal advice is not what OP needs, and finding a lawyer with this expertise is not easy at all.
