COVID-19 and Aged Care

The steady achievers in 2021/22 have once again been the committed staff working in residential and community aged care.

Throughout the added stress of COVID-19, they persevered through the hugely increased information flow from the sector, supporting their elderly frail residents with multiple vaccinations and the many lock downs that were so difficult for all involved.

In the words of Betty Kiernan, Director, Laura Johnson Home, “we’re still walking, we’re still on this journey” reflecting on her experience keeping the residents in Mount Isa safe.
