October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💗

In aged care, we see how deeply breast cancer touches not only individuals but also families and communities. This month, we raise awareness to remind everyone of the importance of early detection, regular check-ups, and support for those affected.

We honour the strength of survivors, remember those we’ve lost, and stand beside our residents, families, and carers in the fight against breast cancer. Together, let’s continue to spread awareness, hope, and compassion.

✨ Celebrating Michelle's birthday today with our Dovida Melbourne Inner North family. Wishing you a year of joy and love. 💐

Today on International Day of Older Persons, we celebrate the
contributions, wisdom, and vitality of older people in our
communities.​

This year's theme reminds us that ageing is not about limitations
- it's about possibility, connection, and continuing to live life on
your own terms. ​

Independence doesn't mean doing everything alone - it means
having the choice and support to live the way you want, in the
place you call home. Whether that's staying active in community
groups, spending time with family, pursuing hobbies, or simply
enjoying the comfort of familiar surroundings, your choices
matter.​

At Dovida, we're proud to support older people to maintain their
independence and continue contributing to the communities
they've helped build.

Reminding everyone this World Heart Day ❤️

Our hearts deserve care at every stage of life, especially as we age. Staying active, eating well, and connecting with others can make a big difference for heart health.

When health challenges arise, many couples find their relationship transformed by the weight of caregiving. The spouse becomes "the carer," and precious moments together become overshadowed by care tasks and worry.​

But love doesn't have to mean doing everything alone. Sometimes the most loving thing you can do is recognise when professional support can help preserve what matters most - your partnership.​

Live-in care isn't about stepping back from your role as a spouse. It's about having the support that lets you step back into it.​

Discover how live-in care helps couples stay together:

Professional live-in care in your own home. Dedicated caregivers provide round-the-clock support, companionship & personal care. Stay independent at home.
