‘Thank you’ from a client
A Resthaven Marion Community Services client has contacted us to ‘personally express’ their ‘gratitude and thanks for having been able to participate in the [Resthaven Short Term Restorative Care] program.’
The client says, ‘It was organised competently, and run very effectively by the staff at Resthaven Marion Community Services.’
‘I wish to highlight several specialists who helped me on my journey to improve, such as the physiotherapist, who capably planned and organised a specific exercise routine, and provided motivational support to me in my own home so that I can continue to improve my fitness and wellbeing.’
‘The Occupational Therapist checked my home and implemented the necessary equipment. Her suggestions helped create a safer home for me to reside in.’
‘My Coordinator monitored my progress very efficiently through the whole process. She was a pleasure to talk with, and ensured that the program ran smoothly for me.’
‘Transportation was arranged also, very promptly, and I was always advised when someone was collecting and returning me home.’
‘I was also informed and given updates on all my services with respect, trust and dignity which is what Resthaven Incorporated advertise.’
‘I feel that all the staff at Resthaven Marion Community Services worked together as a team to ensure that the program ran well for me, and I am very appreciative of their willingness to assist me with my requests.’
‘I believe this program helped me to feel safer and more comfortable in my own home. I also believe that it has given me renewed enthusiasm and motivation to keep living life to the fullest.’
‘All in all, the eight week Short Term Restorative Care Program has been very beneficial for me.’
