Testimonials

Making the decision to move a family member into Aged Care can often be distressing, emotional and complex. In my role as Resident Liaison Officer I step families through the aged care journey, I offer them support, show them kindness and reassurance and I strive to find them the best solution possible. It is incredibly rewarding when I see a happy resident who has settled in well and a family who are confident with the lifestyle and care that their family are enjoying....
