24.01.2022 Feeling festive yet? Our Hurstville residents are! Last week we held a fabulous garden event with Christmas carols, eggnog, laughter and singing. The afternoon was topped off by a sensational entertainer who everyone adored.

23.01.2022 The winner in the 2020 Outstanding Home Services award is Daniella Laurent. Daniella is a member of the laundry team at Regis Armadale and her ability to beautifully press, hang and fold residents clothing is famous within the home. With exceptional time management and organisational skills, she is able to demonstrate to new staff the importance of the laundry role in the smooth running of the resident’s day as well as the operation of the home.

21.01.2022 The 2020 winner of the CEO Award is Nilani Govinna from Regis Brighton. Working at Regis Brighton as a Dementia Liason, Lifestyle Assistant and a Carer, Nilani is valued enormously by the residents, families and colleagues at the home. Regularly using her own time to make things for the residents, such as Remembrance Day poppies or even decorations for their doors, Nilani is consistently engaging the residents and making them feel special.

20.01.2022 The winner in the 2020 Service Excellence award is Bojan Tanoski. Bojan was instrumental in the recent build and set up of Regis Woodlands very own Street Library. A Food Service Assistant with Regis, Bojan utilised his qualification as a carpenter to support this project.

Family members who have their loved ones cared for by Nilani often share their gratitude for the genuine care she provides. Nilani encourages residents to be involved in the activities they enjoy by actively participating in something with them such as planting and watering flowers, drawing and painting. Always demonstrating care and humour, Nilani is committed to improving care for our residents living with dementia. Congratulations!

17.01.2022 The winner in the 2020 Initiative or Innovation of the Year award is Regis Elermore Vale. One of the challenges experienced by residents through Covid-19 has been their limited ability to get out and do a bit of shopping or having their loved ones come into the home to bring them shopping items. The team at Elermore Vale could see the impact this was having on the residents and came up with an idea for a shopping trolley that would bring the shops to their home and allow them to select what they would like. This process involved the residents, their families and the team at Elermore Vale and the success speaks for itself the residents have choice and feel a sense of independence and excitement each time the trolley comes around.

14.01.2022 The winner in the 2020 Outstanding Personal Leadership award is Sehrish Farhan. Sehrish joined Regis in 2014 as a Personal Carer. Her passion and enthusiasm for development has seen her progress to a Registered Nurse, Clinical Care Manager and most recently a General Manager. Sehrish is known for setting high standards and always having resident care as the focus for every decision she makes.

13.01.2022 James is a member of our Book Club at Regis Sandgate Griffith and loves to read at any opportunity.

12.01.2022 Winifred Robertson celebrated her 105th birthday today with her family here at Regis Dandenong North. Affectionately known as Winnie, she was smiling as soon as she saw her balloons. Residents and staff came together to sing happy birthday to Winnie and give her flowers and birthday cake on this momentous day. When staff asked what her secret was, she said, I really don’t know with a big smile on her face.

10.01.2022 At the beginning of the year, our Dandenong North residents visited Hallam Senior College who put on a show and afternoon tea just for our residents. Before they finished school for the year, they had put together a little video letting our residents know that they were thinking of them and to be strong during these tough times. Our residents were so happy and touched by the video. Thank you to the students for thinking of all of our residents! Being a part of our community is so important to us.

09.01.2022 This week, three employees from Regis Sippy Downs and one from Regis Maroochydore met in the afternoon to climb Mount Coolum to raise awareness for the Stroke Foundation. Our incredible team completed the peak in just 21 minutes well done!

04.01.2022 Getting out into the community and enjoying the things that make us smile is so important to us all. Our Regis Kuluin residents have been doing just that and loved every moment of their fishing trip. These outings are the perfect way to create new memories, build strong bonds, and to simply enjoy unique passions and interests.

04.01.2022 Volunteers play a huge role in our Regis Family and we’re so grateful for all the support they provide our residents, especially this year. Regis Hurstville is lucky enough to be graced by George.

02.01.2022 In 2020 we have missed our Volunteers and it was exceptionally difficult to decide between Doug and Barb. We have decided that this year will see both Doug and Barb jointly win the award for Volunteer of the Year.

The residents describe Doug as a kind man with a great sense of humour and someone they can talk to about anything.
