This month, Embracia in Burpengary celebrates their first anniversary, with staff, residents and their families gathering for an informal soirée to commemorate this milestone.
With over 30 years of experience, Embracia is a well-known and established market leader in the aged care industry.
When Peter and Dawn Mackenzie opened their first aged care home, they knew they wanted to change the way aged care was provided; by embracing the person not the routine, through innovation not standardisation, and never resting on their laurels.
Offering thoughtfully designed residential aged care homes, Peter and Dawn pride themselves on ensuring all residents and their families are able to maintain a meaningful connection with their loved ones, while providing the necessary support each individual resident requires to continue living a meaningful life.
Staff at Embracia in Burpengary encourage residents to maintain their independence by being involved in their everyday decision making. Embracing the Montessori approach, our staff are able to individualise the care and support needs of our residents diagnosed with dementia. We truly believe our philosophy is what sets Embracia apart as an aged care provider, as we are genuinely focused on person-centred care.
It is important that our residents have a voice and they are heard, as Embracia in Burpengary is their home. Residents are regularly invited to participate in a committee that meets monthly to discuss a variety of issues which can be anything from engaging with the kitchen staff on menu suggestions to planning monthly functions which bring together the six individual household communities. Embracia prides itself on their Lifestyle program where residents have a choice of activities which are tailored to suit everyone within the Home’s communities.
Embracia in Burpengary will celebrate their first anniversary with a carnival-like atmosphere including a mini sideshow alley, animal petting for young and old alike. Of course no carnival would be complete without fairy floss for those little ones who love visiting their loved one, and who will thoroughly enjoy helping them to celebrate this occasion – sticky fingers and all.
Embracia in Burpengary - where you will find engagement, participation, choice and independence.
