Today we had a lovely delivery from Karina from (Wild and Kind) in Newlyn, for our residents to try their hand again at flower arranging. We had a lovely time with busy hands and busy mouths as we reminisced about our own home gardens, smells, sights and most importantly the smiles it brings to our faces.

News from JCAC's President!

A belated Happy New Year to all in our community.
Our world is constantly changing and in aged care that is also the reality as measure after measure is introduced by the regulators to improve this area of care. John Curtin Aged Care Inc is facing lots of challenges this year and while at times they can appear overwhelming, we are quietly confident that we will meet those challenges.
John Curtin has been thrust into the new process of Registration. Formerly known as Accreditation; which usually took place over a few weeks, this process now is spread across a few months and involves micro audits across all aspects of the business. Management is not given advance warning and when they receive the request, there is a short space of time in which to respond.
We can see the strategy behind this process, but it is challenging none the less. We fully support and thank Karen Robinson, the Acting CEO and the management team in this crucial time.
The Board is also facing change with long term member Malcolm Hull stepping down. Malcolm has served for a number of years as Vice President and Chair of the Infrastructure Committee. His knowledge has been invaluable, we thank him for his service to JCAC and his representation of the Clunes district and wish him well.
Jeremy Radford will be joining the Board, adding considerable project planning skills to the wide range of Board skills.
While we don't have further news to share about the Redevelopment Project at this stage, I can assure you that it too is uppermost in our planning.
So we are all being kept constantly on our toes. The Board and staff at John Curtin are working tirelessly to ensure that we can continue to provide the high standard of care expected of us by our community.

Today our Peacock residents took a walk into our beautiful garden to pick some flowers to arrange for our inside tables. Plenty of smiles and chatter about smells and colours, and yes 'Ben they did leave some still on the bushes'.

As Christmas closes in on us and some of our wonderful staff take time off to be with their own families, we give thanks to each and every Resident who have allowed us to be in their home and bring ALOT of Christmas in. The lifestyle team have had a very fun and busy month, from Christmas Shopping, Christmas baking, late nights with Christmas light seeking, and helping the residents to make a gift for their families. We have celebrated with a marvelous lunch all together and a Christmas Eve Eve.. fancy morning tea.
Merry Christmas to you all, Safe travels and lots of Cheer.

πŸŽ„ Thank You to Our Amazing Team πŸŽ„

A heartfelt thank you to all of the staff at John Curtin Aged Care who helped make today’s Residents, family and friends Christmas party such a wonderful success.

From the beautiful decorating of the Huntley Function Room to the cooking, serving, and cleaning up afterwards, your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed. The food was absolutely amazing, and everyone had a truly lovely time.

A special mention also goes to Santa for visiting and bringing gifts for both the young and the young at heart β€” it was a huge hit and brought many smiles to the room. πŸŽ…πŸŽ

Thank you again to our incredible team for creating such a warm, festive, and memorable celebration for our residents and their loved ones.
