Today we are celebrating Zoe, who was nominated for the colleague of the month award for April!

Zoe regularly receives compliments from the clients she cares for, who say she goes above and beyond at every care visit and delivers exceptional standards of care. She takes the time to ensure her clients feel special. Here is a photo of Zoe with one of our clients, whose family shared that Zoe is an ‘exceptional care giver and made dad feel special just by taking the time to speak to him and attend to all his needs’.

Our team at Angus say ‘Zoe is a complete asset to Prestige Nursing & Care, she is patient and kind with all her clients’.

Congratulations Zoe!

Happy World Health Day!

This year’s theme is ‘Together for health. Stand with science’.

Science is at the heart of healthier lives. Without it, tackling challenges like cancer, infections, and diseases wouldn’t be possible.

These are just a few examples of how science has transformed healthcare:

- Penicillin and antibiotics to treat infections
- Vaccines to prevent infections and disease
- Medical imaging to assess conditions in the body

Understanding these challenges through science helps to shape the way we prevent, diagnose, and treat illness every day.

What scientific breakthrough has helped you and your health?
