    The fees all vary by Geographical area and if your not a private payer your only really paying your pension minus the $80 odd bucks a fortnight you get for pocket money so quite cheap for fully catered care.

    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

    A large player, or larger groups of players have perhaps warmed to the sight of retirement villages I think after seeing all the long term data.

    Come and visit our rest home and talk to our residents. Yes, we are all understaffed but we don’t neglect anyone and we definitely do not leave anyone sitting in soiled incontinence products “all the time” - or “any of the time.”

    Unbelievable
    Deny my experience all you want but its my truth and i know that. Get real it happens. People who wont accept other peoples experiences and your threat of violence suggests you are in the wrong job!

    My "threat of violence" was an emotional reaction to your nasty comment about rest homes, and not serious, as you know full well. I am passionate about my job.it is one of the most under valued and under appreciated jobs, and I get defensive when people like you make disrespectful, generalised claims about the care our elderly receive.Yes, there are some carers who should not be working in the area, but the vast majority of us put everything we have into our jobs and we 100% care about our residents. If you (and others) are so disgusted with the care provided, why on earth would you ever invest in the sector?

    I apologise for my bitch slap comment, but you are wrong about me. Every resident I care for is important to me. I care about each and every one of them. They are treated with respect, compassion and love. Always.

    A very unfair and uncalled for comment

    A bitch slap sounds just the ticket in this case.

    May I suggest we get back to the business of comparing retirement village companies and their merits.
    I see SUM has made some good announcements this morning

    Accepted and im sure you do.And as i noted staff are overworked so cant always pickup on an aroma from residents in their lazyboys on wheels as they rush past a room call ,way down the corridor . Sadly at the care place i visit most of the long term carers and nurses who had been there a long time and who had a calling to do this work left when new management came in. Very different now. I have also been told by a carer at one place Adult nappies are issued at a two a day limit and she has had to sneak another one for a resident.

    Sounds like you need a patch, plenty of gangs out there, who disrespect women as well.
