Juniper

Juniper Our roots extend back to 1949, when we opened our doors in Mt Lawley to 12 older women widowed by the second World War.

At Juniper we are proud to be a local WA non-profit, aged care provider of accommodation and care services for over 75 years that champions individualised care that keeps our customers connected to the people, passions and places they’ve always loved. At Juniper we are proud to be one of Western Australia’s biggest non-profit, local aged care providers, championing individualised care that keeps our customers connected to the people, passions and places they’ve always loved. We want to empower all older Western Australians to hold onto their independence and identity as they journey into old age, supporting them to take pleasure in a life well lived. We do this through our commitment to exceptional care, accommodation and support services in Home and Community Care, Residential Aged Care, Transition Care and Retirement Living communities. Today, we remain local through-and-through, dedicated to the changing needs of Western Australians. That’s why we’re located right across the state, from remote areas of the Kimberley, in the Mid West, across the Wheatbelt, through the Great Southern, Goldfields and within Perth and the Peel region. Our services allow older Western Australians to continue living close to family and friends and within the communities they love. We understand the importance of community and culture – which is why we put it at the heart of everything we do. We are a community of carers that live by our values of welcome, respect, compassion, hope and courage. We’re your partners in helping you keep the unique bits of who you are, and we do this through expertise, compassion and kindness every step of the way.

The Juniper Hilltop residents went on a day trip to the Swan Valley this week, sitting down to a long lunch of lasagna, pasta, and cannoli, and leaving with a few new Italian words courtesy of residents Franka and Coonie.

It was a gorgeous afternoon out, and safe to say the ladies had a wonderful time.

It warms our heart to receive messages like this. Here's a few words from a customer's family to Transition Care Program Navigator Gerard Quigan.

“I was really impressed with the excellent service mum received from Juniper. Your team went over and above to help Mum and make her life easier to keep living in the home.

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to you Gerry for all your practical help, wise insight and encouragement to mum and myself especially – in navigating our way forward in many difficult and tricky situations.

You have made the whole TCP experience pleasant and easy and minimised many potential issues and problems.

I will have no problems in recommending Juniper as an excellent, sincere and outstanding facility to provide a high level of care services to those in need.”

This month, a group of Sarah Hardey residents visited Coogee Marina jetty for a fishing outing, enjoying fresh air, good company, and the chance to wet a line again.

The trip was inspired by resident Bruce Beattie, who mentioned he and his wife used to fish together in Albany but felt his mobility made that impossible now.

Personal Care and Activities Assistant Nancy Soriano took note and made sure he could experience it again. "It's not enough to give our residents something to do with their hands, you must reach for the heart as well as the hands," Nancy said.

Our Juniper Sarah Hardey home has been having a great time hosting some really fun activities for residents to participate in over the past month.

Including Drums Alive Thursdays, a program that's great for both physical and mental health and also a lot of fun!

They also held a Women's Club sewing session where sewing was used as a form of self-expression and creativity, and it was really empowering for residents to be able to create pieces of their own.

Their garden is also looking beautiful and green thanks to residents getting involved in the Sarah Hardey Autumn gardening activity.

It's great to see our residents enjoying the activities we facilitate and we love being able to provide such a diverse range of options for them to be involved in.

As we wrap up our Harmony Week series, we finish with Phub, a Multi Skilled Carer at Juniper Carramar, originally from Bhutan.

Phub shares that some of her favourite parts of Bhutanese culture are the three traditional forms of dance, Zhungdra, Boedra and Rigsar. She also enjoys the fact that multiple generations of family live together under one roof, including grandparents and great grandparents.

We hope everyone enjoyed Harmony Week and took a moment to appreciate the incredible range of cultures we are surrounded by everyday in Australia.

It's been great sharing some of the faces that make up our Juniper team and hope you enjoyed getting to know them a little better. 🧡

Today in our Harmony Week series we speak with Imi, a Registered Nurse at Juniper Karinya, originally from the Philippines.

Imi shares that a colleague once told her Filipino nurses are the best in the world, a reflection she believes is because of a culture deeply grounded in compassion, resilience and a strong work ethic.

Her favourite tradition? Feasts that bring people together in celebration of kinship and family.

Thank you for sharing your culture with us, Imi! 💛

This week is Advance Care Planning Week, a good reminder that this is a conversation worth having sooner rather than later. A conversation between families can mean everyone is on the same page about future health care matters, ensuring a person’s voice is heard and the burden is eased for loved ones.

We've written a blog on what advance care planning involves, why it matters and how to get started.

Juniper recently welcomed Curtin University dietetics students across two sessions at Curtin University and our Rowethorpe Catering Centre, giving future dietitians a look at how we prepare and serve texture-modified meals and the standards we hold across all of our services. The sessions were delivered alongside Juniper's partner The Pure Food Co, a specialist in texture-modified nutrition products.

Juniper Hospitality Coordinator South Jason Low said the workshop was an opportunity to pass on the team's expertise. "I always enjoy opportunities to share knowledge and support learning sessions like these, it's how we help build confidence and shape the future of the dietetics profession," Jason said.

Juniper is proud to be investing in the next generation of aged care professionals. Read more at the link in the comments.

Our Juniper communities had a wonderful St Patrick's Day yesterday! 🍀

Juniper Crystal Halliday residents celebrated with a live performance from Joe, a familiar and beloved face who plays Irish music for our residents every year. Residents enjoyed dancing, arts and crafts, leprechaun hat making and a special Irish lunch. Resident Sam, originally from Belfast, and Evelyn from Dún Laoghaire were happily reminiscing and sharing stories from home.

Our Juniper Rowethorpe retirement living customers came together to celebrate at The Terrace Café, with a menu of Guinness Pot Pie and Silverside that had fantastic feedback.

The Residency in Northam also got into the spirit, decorating the home for the occasion with a few of the staff dressing in green and wearing leprechaun hats.

Everyone had a wonderful time and it was a great excuse to come together and enjoy each other's company. 💚
