Staff

I started here as a kitchen assistant 3 years ago, where I enjoyed providing our residents with nutritious meals and interacting with them on my tea runs. I now work as the administration officer where I love being able to greet residents and help make their days special.

Ann and Gary have each dedicated well over 10 years to volunteering with us. They working hard to create wonderful experiences with our residents.

We love working in aged care. It’s lovely to greet the resident’s and help make their days special. Every day is different and very rewarding.

I just love the interaction with the residents and the team here.

I love coming to visit the old folk especially the ones that don’t get any visitors, having a chat and hearing stories about their past. As I have got older it is still something I can do and makes feel useful. They are all like a family to me. (In loving memory of Jan, 2023)

I was born in a hill region of Nepal and my childhood was spent exploring new cities and towns of Nepal, India and Afghanistan. After finishing high school I wanted to be a lawyer, makeup artist, teacher and so many other things. I was passionate about everything, but once I found nursing I feel like I was born only to be a nurse and I love it.

Santi has an amazing positive attitude. She loves working in aged care and feels it is a privilege to cook for our residents and see them enjoying their food!

Richard is the most amazing maintenance man you could ever ask for. He loves coming to work, has a great rapport with the residents and nothing is ever too much trouble! He makes a difference every day by doing those little extras for the residents and the staff.

I have such a rewarding job – not only caring for residents, friends, family and people around you, but also for yourself.

I am here for the residents and feel I am doing what I have to do to give them the best care. I am very particular about infection control and I tell anyone about what we need to do to keep the residents safe. I make sure they are getting a good quality of life.

I commenced my first role in Aged Care law in 2018, taking a break and coming back just 18 months later to an inhouse role. I couldn’t stay away! I have been so pleasantly surprised by how positive everyone here is, no matter how hard the day may be. I love experiencing the personal satisfaction of knowing that I am doing a job that genuinely makes a difference. No two days here are ever the same and I bring energy, smiles and laughter wherever I go – including my workplace.

Christa found herself working in the kitchen of our Christies Beach Facility after she initially applied believing it was a restaurant many years ago! She then added cleaning, laundry and caring to her skillset and would work these four different shifts each fortnight, motivated by being the provider for her family and fulfilling her life-long travel dream. She now loves working in laundry and loves the hotel service team. Christa always dreamt of seeing the pyramids in Egypt and not only fulfilled that dream, but has also visited the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower and the Colosseum. She has more locations on her bucket list which she continues to work hard towards. Christa lost her partner years ago and brought up her adopted children mostly by herself. She now cares for her grandchildren also.
