Finding purpose and joy through volunteering
As part of our commitment to resident wellbeing, our passionate teams empower residents to pursue their passions and achieve meaningful goals.
Watch Clinical Care Manager Bridie as she shares the inspiring story of resident Shirley, who has found joy in caring for the large fishpond at Evanston Park, keeping it clean and making sure the fish are always well-fed.
"Shirley volunteers because it brings a sense of purpose to her life, proving to herself and others that she still has much to contribute. Her journey shows that life in aged care can be fulfilling and meaningful."
