🌟 Gratitude Update 🌟
Every time I share something on here, I find myself genuinely amazed—not just by the progress Te Cepi is making, but by the support of the incredible people around me.
✨ First – Te Cepi has officially passed our Stage 1 Certification Audit!
It’s been a couple of months of hard, honest work—and hearing the auditor’s encouraging feedback made it all worthwhile. Now we begin preparations for Stage 2. Onwards and upwards!
✨ Second – I had the privilege of attending an in-depth Support Coordination workshop with Dr. Vicky of NDIPreneur. Big shout out to RN Karen of I-Connect Healthcare Services for all your support and for tagging me along!
As I mentioned in my email to Dr. Vicky and the group, thank you is not enough. I hope to honour the values and quality of service modelled to us by embodying them in my work. I left the session feeling more confident, motivated, and hopeful. It was a true blessing—both in content and company.
✨ Third – I received deeply touching feedback from the wife of one of our participants. With edits for privacy:
“Maria was thrown into our situation where my husband was sent home prematurely without core support, care plan or modifications. She gave us her expertise, emotional support in the hardest of times. She’s been proactive, transparent, and kind… She brings a scientific nursing background but has a holistic approach to care. She’s taken a load off my shoulders liaising with specialists, coordinating care, and making things happen.”
There are hard days, no doubt—but reminders like these keep me going. I thank God for the blessings—big and small—and for every person who’s walked with me on this journey. 💛
Wishing you all a lovely rest of your day!
