We celebrated International Nurses Day in May and whilst this important day is recognised on the birthday of the world’s most famous nurse, Florence Nightingale, Moran Aged Care chooses to not only recognise our wonderful nurses but also all team members who provide care and services to our residents.
Said Nelly Banag, Moran Kellyville General Manager. “We celebrated International Nurses Day with a special morning tea for team members and residents, presenting every team member with a bright green polo shirt with the words “Proud to Care 2022” on the back. We also recognised individuals who have gone above and beyond in their role through special Recognition Awards.”
We asked the Moran team to share what being ‘Proud to Care’ means to them and this is what they said:
“I feel proud when a resident smiles at me and thanks me. That’s when I know that they appreciate the care I give and it motivates me to do my best every day.”
Maria – Registered Nurse
“I’m proud to be a caregiver and to work in this beautiful home, I tell everyone to come and work here with us.”
Joanne – Carer
“My team shows their passion for caring through the meals they prepare and the interactions they have with our residents, we are very proud to care.” Aaron – Chef
“I feel so proud, I work in a profession where I can make a difference in someone’s life. This is what motivates me to do my best as nurse.” Sarah – Assistant Care Manager
“I work in the laundry and provide housekeeping services to the Home, I also have a passion for knitting and sewing. I love that I get to care in my own special way, chatting to residents when I pop their clean clothes away for them and having a natter while we have a knitting circle.” Nerida – Accommodation Services
