                            A NOTE FROM
                             KRISTY POTTS — FACILITY MANAGER

Welcome to June and we welcome winter. One I hope that will be short. It’s been a cool start and
the nights a little chilly. If headed outside, please make sure you are rugged up.
It’s been a whirlwind month at Lakeside!

We welcome Catherine Anderson as our New Director of Nursing. She comes to us with many
years experience in a diverse range of positions within Aged Care and community over the years.

Thankyou for everyone’s support and patience during the roll out of the Covid  vaccination
program. We are proud to report that 89.42% ( 93) consumers have had their covid 19 vaccina-
tions ( dose 1 and 2) during our covid clinic held in May.

We are putting a call out for a chair person for our resident and relative meetings. We are hoping
to engage more interest in these meetings for better consumer satisfaction and to improve the
service we provide. Please see Donna or Cassy to register your interest for discussion at the June
Meeting.

Don’t forget our partnership in care program is up and running. Partnership in care is a person
who has a close and continuing relationship with their consumer - this could be a family member,
a loved one , a friend or a representative. This person is then recognised and may be involved in
the delivery of services, and provide day to day care to the resident. For more information,
please contact our Director of Nursing, Catherine Anderson.

We are currently watching the Victorian Covid situation unfold and will continue to update daily
as restrictions from entry to our Centre unfold. It’s business as usual and we continue checking
hotspots daily. Just a reminder to stay home and refrain from visiting if you are unwell or have
been to a hotspot location. If unsure, call the facility and speak with reception who can inform
you of the most up to date information.

Take care and stay warm,
Kristy x

          A WORD WITH
          CASSY GREENTREE — PASTORAL CARER

    Happiness is:
    The feeling of warm sunlight
    hitting you on a cold winter’s
    day.

    Church Services

       ANGLICAN MASS—7th of June 2021
       CATHOLIC MASS— No service due to
                      Public Holiday

    Pastoral Care Visits are planned weekly &
    whenever required.
    Remember you do not have to be religious or even
    spiritual to speak with the chaplain; all you have to be is
    human. The chaplain represents a person that is
    non-religious, non-discriminatory and non-judgmental!
    Thanks be to a higher power.
