At Arcare we love celebrating the unique stories of our residents.

Join us as we step into the remarkable life of Rod Blair, former member of The Rhythmaires, whose smooth harmonies once filled cruise ship lounges across the globe.

Now enjoying life at Arcare Lisarow, Rod reflects on how the rhythm of the ocean still beats in his heart.

When new resident Helen walked into Rita’s room at Arcare, she never expected to be reunited with her primary school friend from 1945. 💜

After realising Rita was the same “Rita Gunn” she knew from The Sacred Heart Primary School, the two embraced with excitement, rekindling a friendship that began over 75 years ago.

Their story is a heartwarming reminder of the connections, joy, and surprises that can blossom in aged care. 🌸

And when asked what advice she’d give to others moving into aged care, Rita shared: “Introduce yourself to the other residents, go to activities and meet new people. Just do and be yourself - it is easy to make new friends and keep active.”
