Last week, residents from our independent living villages came together to play pétanque and indoor bowls at Roches Beach Living.

The Christian Homes Tasmania buses picked everyone up in the morning for a day of socialising, a glass of champagne, and a bit of competition!

We're already looking forward to doing it all again next month.

Meet Ree! Ree is a well-known face at CHT, now in her 16th year of working with us.

Before settling down and starting a family, Ree travelled around Australia in a caravan with her husband Scott, who also works at CHT. It was through her sister that Ree began her journey with us.

“My sister was working here as a cook in the kitchen. She suggested I apply, so I started as a casual in the kitchen while my girls were starting kinder and primary school. After a while, I felt like I needed something more. I used to walk past this (Snug) office all the time thinking, I’d really like that job. It’s funny that I’m here now.”

Ree went on to complete a business administration diploma, not long after, a role became available at head office.

“I applied, thinking I was just going in for a chat, and that afternoon they rang and offered me the job. It was exciting… and then I thought, What have I done? Going from casual part-time to full-time. The CEO at the time encouraged me and showed me the ropes. I finished the course, stayed at head office for a while, and then this role here (at Snug Village) became available. They actually encouraged me to apply because I knew the staff and residents so well. I really like being around lots of people, especially families.”

When asked what her favourite part of the job is, Ree says it is the people.

“The residents, the families, the staff. I love the families and building good connections with them. I really enjoy working with all the team at CHT, I enjoy making everyone smile with the fun raffles that seem to grow and grow every year!

At Snug, there’s the funny games I organise for staff and residents. I enjoy making everyone's day whether it’s a smile, or a simple “how are you today?” or “how can I help?”

There are so many (memories). Sixteen years is a long time.

I think what really stands out for me is being there for families when someone is passing away. Being able to give them a hug, sit with them, and support them. I feel really connected to them. It’s sad, but in a way it’s also the best part, being there for people in those moments.

One funny memory is a lady we used to have here called Jo. She’d come out and sit in the foyer and I’d say, ‘Oh, good morning, Jo,’ and she’d say, ‘No, Ree, it’s not nine o’clock. I can’t talk to you until nine.’ So she’d sit there, and then as soon as nine o’clock hit she’d say, ‘Hi Ree, how was your weekend?’ Little things like that are so funny.”

Like many roles in aged care, there are challenges as well.

“(The hardest part is) saying goodbye to people. Not just the residents, but the families too. That can be really hard.
Sometimes you see them out and about and they’ll say, ‘Oh hi, Ree, we miss you,’ and it’s really nice to see them, but it’s still hard once the resident has passed away.

I guess that’s also why I’m here. I love it. That’s what keeps me here, the chitty chat, being able to help, and being a familiar face. I’ve been here so long that if I’m not around, people notice and ask where I am. It’s nice to feel that connection.”
