Meet The Oaks’ new Care Manager
The Oaks new Care Manager Desme Daniels relishes in the daily transformations that take place across The Oaks Care Suites, “Witnessing people make new friends and participate in group activities - sometimes after living alone for sometime - it's wonderful to see.”
Oceania has always been about creating homes for people, not just bricks and mortar. As Desme explains, “Great care looks like home and family. Coming to The Oaks you get to be surrounded by staff who quickly become your friends, and whilst the clinical care is excellent, because we don’t look like a hospital or feel like a hospital or clinic, you sometimes don’t even realise how well cared for you are.”

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
