Beautiful sunny day for a gopher trial in Nannup today! We have established relationships with south west equipment suppliers and can help arrange an in home trial. This is particularly handy to ensure that the equipment fits in or around the home where it needs to go, and can make it up and down those pesky Nannup hills!!

🦠 We take infection control seriously 🦠

✅ We sterilise all toys & resources between clients. Shared playdough? No way!
✅ Our staff carry gloves, masks, antibacterial wipes & sanitising hand gel in their vehicles (& use them!)
✅ We reschedule clients if staff or members of their household have contagious illnesses. Whilst this may be inconvenient at the time, we won’t risk passing illnesses onto our valued clients.

Big changes are coming to aged care in Australia, which will have a direct impact on people living with dementia, their families and carers.



From 1 November 2025, the new Aged Care Act will reshape how care is delivered - putting older people's rights and needs first.



Join COTA Australia - for older Australians and the Older Persons Advocacy Network (OPAN) for free community information sessions to learn what the reforms mean for you and get your questions answered.



Sessions are happening in-person in Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin & Gold Coast throughout September-October.



And if you can't make it in person, you can join the events online.

Wednesday’s therapy started like this👇😍

Cooking playdough at a client’s house to work on hand skills 🖐️ (like pouring, stiring and kneading), then using it to make silly characters showing different emotions! A fun opportunity to explore how our bodies look and feel when we feel different ways.
