25.01.2022 Vegie pick today, with a bit of wenonah shenanigans.

25.01.2022 Our new board game. Snakes and Ladders. You win a chocolate at the top of a ladder. This game has been in the production stage for about 6 months now, and today finally after a much anticipated wait we got to play. Thank you to all who helped me make this new game. Deb for the dice and aunt Bell for all the bears.

07.01.2022 BIG Hello from Tracy at Wenonah Community Care Wenonah Community Care would like to reassure our elderly who are staying at home that they will continue to receive our services and support in the home and that we are here to help with other services if needed. In the midst of this ongoing pandemic we are all attempting to adapt and change to the new lifestyle thrust upon us. ... I would like to ask you how are you feeling throughout the changes in your life thus far? Or How would you feel if you were one of our aged citizens? Being told to stay at home, taking away social interaction giving fewer chances to intact with people let alone family members. Handshakes and hugs no longer being permitted to be a part of accepted lifestyle along with social distancing? This can be challenging for our older clients and community members, spurring emotions of abandonment, hopelessness, fear and anxiety. The team at Wenonah Community Care would like to know if there anything that we can do for you? We can offer services of social well being, ringing or checking in on a client or someone over 65 who is at home, socially isolating, just to let you know that you are not alone, and somebody is there for you. Our meals on wheels service can deliver home cooked meals along with a dessert and juice if you are needing help with your nutrition. This is delivered by one of our dedicated and friendly team members either be it a volunteer or staff member. Are you finding shopping difficult or worried that you need to stay home? Why not let us do this for you? During this time of isolation if you or someone you know can use assistance from Wenonah Community Care please feel free to ring 6374 2088 for help. Staff and volunteers have been asked to ensure good hand hygiene and to maintain 1.5m distance, we urge and encourage you to do the same. With a common sense approach we are able to ensure the safety of clients and workers at all times. It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving but like the morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living -F.Scott Fitzgerald

03.01.2022 We have surveyed our residents today (1/6/2020) about when they would like to move to restricted visitation and the results are as follows: a) Now 39% b) Mid-June 2020 50% c) End of June 2020 11%... This indicates that most residents DO NOT want to open up Wenonah Lodge to inside visiting at this stage. We will continue with all the current practices eg Window of Love, sitting & talking through the fence, supported phone calls, supported video calls etc
