The caring hands of our op shop volunteers are taking a well-deserved break this festive season, and will return in the New Year on Monday 13 January 😊 With the shop now closed, we kindly ask that any donations over the holidays be given in person when the team are able to accept them (and not left at our Community Support building door). Thank you to all who have supported our shop this year! Your support is directly helping the community we all call home 👏❤️⭐

This Christmas, let’s remember that the greatest gift we can give is kindness 💙 By reaching out and making a difference, we can turn what can be a lonely season for some into a time of hope and connection for someone in need. Today's blog as some great tips on how you can help: https://lnkd.in/gTZZmhaj #caringhands #protectandconnect

Some good news to start another hot week! 🔥 The second energy relief payment of $350 has been applied to Synergy accounts, bringing relief to many 👏 We've seen an increase in recent months of people needing financial assistance with large overdue utility bills, so this second instalment is great timing to provide some relief as head into festive season, and for those families soon organising back to school fees. Our Financial Counselling and Energy Ahead teams are available to help if you need, just reach out to Duncan or Kevin, pictured here, on 9450 6233 to make an appointment or book online: https://lnkd.in/gunKMQcP 🙌 Energy Ahead Workshops #caringhands #protectandconnect

How serious is Southcare about innovation? 🤔 At Southcare, we believe innovation in aged care is essential to delivering better outcomes for our customers—especially during this unprecedented period of reform and change. 🚀 Innovation is in our DNA, driving transformations in our administration systems, customer experiences, and data management through the smart use of technology. Last month, at the World Business Forum in Sydney, our team was challenged by three powerful questions from business thinker, Gary Hamel: 1️⃣ Have you been trained as a business innovator? 2️⃣ Do you have access to resources for experimentation and innovation? 3️⃣ Are leaders in your organisation clearly accountable for innovation? We’d love to hear from you! How does your organisation foster innovation? Are you creating spaces for creativity and experimentation? Let’s spark a conversation in the comments below! #Southcare #AgedCare #Innovation

Say hello to our Home Care Workers, Lorraine and Fiyori! Our Southcare Stars describe Lorraine as "friendly and kind", and Fiyori as "just perfect".

At Southcare, we’re glad to have fostered a workplace culture that attracts the kindest, most caring individuals who share our mission of enriching lives and building stronger communities.
