Recognising our unsung heroes

Mayflower celebrated Aged Care Employee Day on August 7 with a special staff morning tea and awards ceremony at our Brighton and Reservoir residences.

Aged Care Employee Day is an official day to thank, honour, recognise and celebrate the hundreds of thousands of people who work in the aged care industry across Australia.

Mayflower CEO, Rosa Ginevra, was proud to acknowledge the incredible contribution Mayflower staff make towards improving the wellbeing of older Australians at the Reservoir morning tea.

“Our remarkable team of staff work tirelessly to deliver the very best care possible for our residents, and we can’t thank them enough,” said Ms Ginevra.

“They are our unsung heroes and today we applaud them for their passion, energy and dedication. Mayflower would not be the organisation it is without them.”

Mayflower Reservoir was fortunate to have some special guests in attendance at their morning tea including Anthony Albanese, Federal Opposition Leader; Ged Kearney, Member for Cooper; and Robin Scott, State Member for Preston.

Mr Albanese and Ms Kearney delivered short speeches recognising the importance of the day, and staff enjoyed hearing them acknowledge the significant contribution that aged care employees make in caring for older Australians.
