Join us as we meet some of our amazing aged care workers.

Having started her career three years ago, Shristi is a talented nurse and feels passionate about making a difference in the lives of her elderly residents at BaptistCare Kintyre Lodge, Dubbo.
 

 

“Qualifying as a Registered Nurse is one of the biggest achievements of my life,” says Shristi. “I love caring for people and giving back to the community. 
 
“Working in aged care is very multicultural and you get to meet lots of interesting people. I’ve been able to improve my nursing skills through regular training and development opportunities. Above all, I feel valued and appreciated at work, which has helped me to grow in confidence over the years.”   
 
When she’s not at work, she loves to travel, make new friends, and… dance! 
 
“I love all forms of dance but I particularly love traditional Nepalese music and dancing in the typical Nepalese attire,” says Shristi. “I am not a professional dancer, but I dance to embrace happiness.”

 

What’s your tip for healthy ageing?

“Yoga is a wonderful way to improve flexibility, balance, and strength. It’s also a great opportunity to meet others and make new friends!”
