Carer support and health promotion were top of the agenda when The Hon . Ros Spence , Victorian Minister for Carers and Volunteers , Community Sport and Agriculture met with carers , staff and toured our Chifley site !
Local carer Bruna shared her experiences as a full time carer for her husband , and the positive impacts of Merri ’ s support services .
“ Just knowing there is a group of people there who can help you when you need it makes such a difference . All the staff are so passionate . It ’ s not just a job , they are so caring . They have helped me connect with other carers in the same situation . Knowing you ’ re not alone is so important .” Bruna said .
