25.01.2022 When Louise, our Sales Manager takes new families and residents on a tour of our beautiful Bribie Cove home, she is so proud to talk about all our wonderful staff and how they go above and beyond for all of our residents. Here is our wall that shows how well the staff support each other, a special way to show appreciation for a well deserving team.

25.01.2022 Our gorgeous residents had a hat making competition for Happy Hour, here are some of the winning creations. Silka wanted to show us her beautiful baby doll. Roger has taken a shine to our latest Kingfisher addition, a puppy. We also have a kitten and both are yet to be named. We are taking suggestions from our residents and will let you know what the winners are.

24.01.2022 At McKenzie we want to extend our thanks to all our nursing assistants (AINs and PCAs) during Nursing Assistant Week June 18 - 24, 2020, for their outstanding contribution. Hearts and hands that deliver outstanding care everyday with warmth and a smile ensuring our residents look and feel great. When you see our wonderful carers (they wear the blue shirts) we encourage you to take a minute to acknowledge them.

23.01.2022 Tomorrow is Remembrance Day and in commemoration of this solemn day, Ron Wollington, a resident at CapellaBay in Queensland, has put pen to paper and written a poem. Ron’s poem, titled ‘Remembrance Day’ is a wonderful tribute to all those who fought and died in wars. The black and white photo was taken in 1945 when Private Ron Wollington was 19 years old. Ron was enlisted in the Royal Ulster Riffle Brigade and he often talks about the comradery and old fashioned mateship that... has lasted a lifetime. Thank you Ron, for sharing your poetry with all of us. We are sure it will touch the hearts of many people.

22.01.2022 Here at Bribie Cove we are getting into the spirit of NAIDOC Week. Today we did some aboriginal dot painting and the residents absolutely loved it. Tomorrow we are making Clap Sticks, so stay tuned!!

22.01.2022 Volunteers are back and gee we have missed them, here are Yvonne and Lissa with our group of residents that enjoy playing 'Hole In One'.

Yvonne and Lissa said "it is great to be back as we have missed spending time, talking and having fun with the resident, they some have great stories to tell."

17.01.2022 LEST WE FORGET - REMEMBRANCE DAY 11.11.2020 At 11am on 11 November 1918 the guns on the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare. The moment when hostilities ceased on the Western Front became universally associated with the remembrance of those who had died in the war. This conflict had brought about the mobilisation of over 70 million people and left between 9 and 13 million dead, perhaps as many as one-third of them with no known grave. A...t the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, all McKenzie Aged Care homes and offices will observe one minute’s silence, in memory of those who served and continue to serve protecting our country. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. Lest we forget.

08.01.2022 Today is R U OK?Day a day that aims to inspire everyday conversations about mental health. A day when we are reminded to check-in with our friends, family, colleagues, and even ourselves. This year is one that has presented everybody with extraordinary circumstances. Restrictions and lockdowns across the country, caused by the coronavirus pandemic, has thrown up challenges that many Australians are struggling to cope with. Isolation, empty workplaces, home confinement and h...ealth fears for our families and self has caused mental health issues to soar to new levels. Staying connected to one another has never been more important. In many instances, we may not be able to meet in person but we still have phones to stay in touch. So, if you know someone who might be struggling - a friend, family or workmate - please, reach out and ask: R U OK? See more
