Jessica joined our Harden Grange team when we opened the doors two years ago and she loves making sure residents are comfortable and feel at home.
As a Service Support Worker, she helps create welcoming spaces, ensuring the households are clean, bedding is laundered, and that the residents enjoy freshly washed and pressed clothing.
What do you love about Harden Grange?
The team is lovely and we all work together to create a friendly atmosphere for everyone. I love being able to have conversations with residents as I go about my tasks. They always have something interesting to say.
How do you make a positive difference to residents?
I can see that residents appreciate having their laundry back on time and having a perfectly clean and tidy home every day. But I can also see they appreciate me taking the time to engage with them and show them love and respect.
Do you have any advice for others considering working in aged care?
Go for it! It’s such a satisfying role and you learn a lot being around the elderly. Harden Grange is a fantastic place to work. We are a team that’s more like one big, happy family.
