This year marks ten years of Homestyle Aged Care’s proud sponsorship supporting the School of Nursing and Midwifery Student Awards at Deakin University. The annual Student Awards formally recognises students achievements across all Deakin campuses and acknowledges outstanding efforts, dedication, academic performance and significant commitment to the University and wider community.

The Awards were held on April 9th with Homestyle CEO Tim Humphries presenting two students from each Campus their awards. The 2025 winners are Annika Singh from the Burwood Campus and Mikala Zahra from the Waterfront Campus. Tim had a chance to meet with and speak to both winners, who were extremely grateful and appreciative to receive their award. Both recipients are third year students with their award presented in recognition of their excellence and commitment to quality care of an older person in the unit HNN318: Care of an Older Person.

Homestyle looks forward to our continued support of the Deakin Awards next year, and being able to acknowledge the students hard work and promote Aged Care in a positive light.
