Stirling marked Halloween with trick or treating, themed costumes and a Halloween themed intergenerational playgroup! 🎃

The trick or treating didn’t stop there! Staff dressed in themed costumes and visited our residents on Halloween, handing out some sweet treats that were sure to bring smiles!

Recently, our Hughes residents and staff celebrated the vibrant Hindu festival of lights, referred to as Diwali in India and Tihar in Nepal. Although traditions slightly vary between each country, both Diwali and Tihar are a celebration of good conquering evil. 🪔

This was a lovely day of celebration, and the home marked the occasion with colourful traditional dress and bright decorations, fitting for this meaningful celebration of light!

Saturday marked the beginning of a transformative era with the commencement of the Aged Care Act 2024 - the most significant reform to the Australian Aged Care sector.

This Act is more than a policy, it’s a commitment to person-centred care, prioritising the rights, needs, wellbeing and dignity of older people.

At , we embrace these strengthened standards and the Act’s rights-based framework that reinforce our vision to create a world where older people feel known, loved, and connected. Compassionate care that makes a real difference to the lives of older people is at the heart of what we do. 💜

Last week we held our Annual General Meeting, coming together to reflect on the last 12 months and to acknowledge the year ahead.

We’re excited to announce Sophie Ray as Chair, following her appointment by the Board during the AGM. With extensive experience in human services and governance, we look forward to the guidance Sophie will provide.

Following the formalities, the evening continued with a farewell dinner celebrating Wyn Janssen and his remarkable 28 years serving the community, including the last 9 years serving as Chair.

Over this time, Wyn has helped shape the organisation into what it is today with his values-driven, humble and selfless leadership.

Wyn has had a profound impact on Warrigal and the evening was a beautiful tribute to this, and a wonderful opportunity to show our appreciation for his dedication to the older people in our care.

We thank Wyn for his significant contributions and the legacy he leaves, and look forward to the year ahead as we continue to create a world where older people feel known, loved, and connected. 💜

The strengthened quality standards, as part of the new Aged Care Act coming into effect from 1 November 2025, places the rights and dignity of older people at the centre, ensuring they receive quality care tailored to their needs.

This Act identifies 7 quality standards that focus on the safety and quality of care provided, and ensure that older people know that their voice matters, and that their voice is heard.

At , we understand the importance of adopting a person-centred approach, delivering high-quality care that empowers older people across our services. Aligning with our vision to create a world where older people feel known, loved, and connected, we welcome these improved standards - an important step forward for the sector in ensuring older people receive the care they deserve. 💜
