20.01.2022 This time of year we all need to be taking extra care to stay healthy. Washing your hands is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your family from getting sick. A fun way to remember how long you should wash your hands for, is to sing Happy Birthday slowly to yourself.

15.01.2022 Welcome to Honey Bee Homes - A new era in Aged Care in the Northern Rivers.

11.01.2022 The Pineapple Project Podcast takes life’s prickly bits, and make them sweeter and easier to deal with. If you died tomorrow, would the people around you know what to do? Nah, of course they wouldn't! We know it’s a really difficult conversation to have, but it's important. That's why The Pineapple Project is tackling death. Because literally everybody is doing it. Get it? Just search for The Pineapple Project where ever you normally listen to your podcasts. #hbh #honeybeehomes

09.01.2022 Have you written a Will? Have you allocated where you want your superannuation to go when you die? All pretty important stuff, listening to Ep 4 of this podcast is a great reminder that you should go and write that Will today!

08.01.2022 "There is also a push to provide a more home-like environment in nursing homes and one that is more resident-oriented. This includes smaller facilities with flexible routines (so you don't necessarily have to eat at a set time), access to outdoors and opportunities to make meals or do other domestic jobs. A 2018 Flinders University study found the home-style model creates a better quality of life for people with dementia, as well as fewer hospitalisations."

08.01.2022 Residential Aged Care certainly isn’t for everyone and when the time comes the decisions can be overwhelming! We love that a silver lining to this family’s change in work habits has meant that they can support their mother at home surrounded by the people she adores most in the world. If you find yourself stuck in an aged care dilemma, contact us so we can talk you through some options.

07.01.2022 What is Honey Bee Homes.....watch our video to hear our story!

04.01.2022 Like humans, bees are incredibly social creatures, who will protect the ones they love and will work together for common goals. Happy World Bee Day from the @honey.bee.homes team. . . . .... #bees #worldbeeday #agedcare #bangalow #fortheloveofbees #nsw #dementiacare @ Bangalow, New South Wales See more

04.01.2022 We welcome couples to come and live with us. So often we have seen couples having to separate as one declines, leaving the other at home alone. It’s heartbreaking to watch a couple go through this after 60 years of marriage. Couples who want to stay together must be able to, it just the right thing to do!

03.01.2022 Death is certain, although the time and circumstances are uncertain. The best time to prepare is in the fullness of our lives. Death doesn't have to be incredibly expensive, and you might be surprised at how many options you have when purchasing a coffin or arranging an end of life celebration.

02.01.2022 Opening our doors soon!

01.01.2022 We love it when people come together to look at different ways of delivering aged care to their community. We know it can’t be a one size fits all approach and maintaining connections is so important in reducing isolation.
