The art of ageing

“Mum was diagnosed with early stages of dementia in 2017. Her condition worsened over a short period of time, which required Mum to have full time care. Lions Haven fortunately was able to accommodate her and give her the help and quality of life she needed and deserved, with constant supervision and assistance. She has since become a much-loved resident. Tash treats Mum as if she were her own Mum, with lots of patience, love and devoted care. She sparks Mum's day with pampering or doing her hair, those little personal comforts for when we can't be there. The Lifestyle team organise special events to stimulate the residents and if we can't get in to visit, they arrange FaceTime chats. To see her face brighten up when she can see you, makes a world of difference! Overall, Lions Haven has been a great comfort through these life changing experiences for both Mum and our family.”

“We put our mother, (grandmother and great grandmother) into Lions Haven earlier this year. She was very nervous about her transition into an aged care facility but putting her into Lions Haven has been the best decision for her. She has blossomed with confidence - even coming from a non-English speaking background. She thoroughly enjoys the wide range of activities on offer and has made some wonderful friendships. As far as she is concerned, she feels very much as home and is very satisfied with the level of support from staff and management. Lions Haven is her home away from home and she couldn’t be happier. Keep up the great work!”

“Fabulous team & they do a terrific job. We always have things to do on the weekend. Barry and I enjoy going to all the activities & they are great. We love Happy Hour & the ‘Sing A Long’ afternoon”.

“They are a wonderful group of people who are totally dedicated to making life as good as they can make it for the residents of Lions Haven. My wife is a resident at Lions Haven, she has been at the facility now for 5 months and was struggling to adjust to not being with me at home. The lifestyle team are so good to her. Recently our granddaughter got married and the lifestyle team escorted Margaret and me to the wedding in the Haven’s wheelchair accessible vehicle. That's the sort of thing they do for us. The team are proactive in taking the residents on outings and Margaret enjoys the outings to Paradise Point. My wife is in good hands with the lifestyle team.”

"The biggest thank you for the care my mum received whilst living at Lions Haven in particular the staff and the lifestyle team. In the last 12 months my mum had the best time she could of ever had. To the nursing staff, your receptionist and accounts my family and I would like to applaud the whole team. And I would be honored to also come to Lions Haven in my elderly years as the staff are second to none."
