Thank you for being there for our Family members 😘😘

That’s just wonderful
One of our amazing nurses Fatima and Julie our General Manager from Aurrum Wyoming. We thank all the team for their commitment and care celebrating Aged Care Employee Day 2020. Our residents share their appreciation too through the following testimonials….
Marion, Kristy and Cegee (RN) just can’t do enough for you, nothing is too much. Cegee likes to have a joke. All the staff are wonderful, especially Andrew because he takes us for a walk.
All the nurses do a wonderful job. Gwen is great and Marion is fantastic. Kristy, Trent and Stuart are always ready with a smile. The Team goes above and beyond. Always obliging if you need anything.
All the nurses are lovely. The staff are very good at their job. Julie does a fantastic job. Being a smaller home makes a difference.
There are great nurses like Marion, Gwen, Annette and Stuart. Always taking time to have a chat and genuinely caring about me. A young nurse always waters my plants which is great.
The nurses are very helpful. They answer all queries and always help me get in and out of my wheelchair. They treat me with kindness and make time for me. They are all wonderful.
Thank you to Julie, Fatima and the team. You all fill my grandparents Ken & Gwen’s days filled with lots of love, encouragement and support everyday. So thank you 🙏
A fabulous Wyoming team of dedicated people. From top to bottom, all the staff are terrific. My mum Pam is blessed to have landed in such an incredible location, and will tell me so! Add in the laughter, footy discussions with every visit and it’s a 10/10...

Aurrum Erina & Terrigal Drive Resident Margaret Cosier has been knitting beanies and donating them to Coast Shelter who pass them onto homeless men. She knits with a wool, bamboo & alpaca blend for maximum warmth. We think they’re amazing!
I know some homeless people over here in NZ and I know that the recipients who receive them via the Coast Shelter will be very grateful for your wonderful knitting. Will help to keep them warm and remind them that there are people who care 👍

I am happy to see that someone is getting the garden beds ready I am so sad that I can't be there to help hopefully remo can keep up the good work
Resident pooch Molly at Aurrum Wyoming oversaw the morning excercises while a menagerie of birds enjoyed the bird feeder delights that residents maintain for them.
