19.01.2022 An interesting article in the Irish Times that many Australian families are dealing with right now. https://www.irishtimes.com//i-am-definitely-not-going-to-a

18.01.2022 I see this daily and understaffing is and has been an issue for a long time.

16.01.2022 STAY COVID SAFE, AVOID COMPLACENCY At Resthaven, we want to stay COVID SAFE at all times and prevent any risk of a positive COVID-19 case in any of our services.... We all need to work hard to maintain this and do the right thing at all times. Thank you for your support with this. Overall, South Australia has continued to respond positively to the risk of COVID-19, with the community abiding by the steps recommended to us all to assist in prevention. Unfortunately, we are not seeing the same positive outcomes occurring interstate, with Victoria and New South Wales still having significant positive cases that are coupled with community transmission. This poses a risk for us all and more so for older people. Due to the Coronavirus cases being identified in regional Victoria, even greater vigilance is required, particularly at Resthaven Mount Gambier. We cannot afford any complacency. Please remember these prevention steps: Maintain good hand hygiene at all times wash your hands with soap and water or utilise hand sanitising gel Ensure social distancing of 1.5 metres at all times Practice good cough etiquette Stay away from anyone who is sick Ensure you inform staff if you are sick with any type of respiratory symptoms or a fever. OUTINGS In late June, it was welcome news that the State Emergency Direction allowed residents to leave their residential aged care homes for outings. However, should South Australia again have positive Coronavirus cases, the risk of community transmission by attending locations in the community can pose great risk. Hence, it is important that any resident outings occur with a strong focus on avoiding any possible risk and, ideally, be only for the purposes of a small family gathering or where social distancing can be assured. We have released a fact sheet to guide you in the safe management of outings. https://bit.ly/2ZSYtC5 Thank you in advance for adhering to these measures to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all residents and staff.

15.01.2022 I have learned so much from my elderly clients. Their wisdom, life stories and unconditional love and support for each other makes me appreciate my youthful health. Their determination to live the rest of their lives knowing that it's time to look after themselves. Watching carers (husband and wives) with their own disabilities provide 24 hour care for their terminally ill partners fill my heart with gratitude. They live by their marriage vows "For better, for worse, in sickn...ess and in health". They have not turned their backs on each other during times of struggle instead they have continued to support, care and share the purest of love. "I deserve unconditional pure love from one who sees my inner beauty, one who is willing to share trust, one who will share their kindness while holding hands and share and believe in my journey". "We can all learn from those who have honoured their commitment to unconditional love". Bec Norton
