Meet Embracia's New Wellness Registered Nurses

on Tuesday, April 11, 2023

Embracia Victoria has introduced an innovative Wellness Program to their residential aged care homes. The program is designed so residents receive individual support, additional care minutes and improved pain management approaches.

The initiative will deliver a calendar of holistic therapies, massage and traditional allied health services from specialist Wellness Registered Nurses (RNs) and physiotherapists. Embracia’s wellness nurses Nisha and Chandra have just started at the Embracia Moonee Valley home in order to deliver the program from Monday-Friday every week. 

The Wellness Calendar features a range of activities, such as group exercise led by physiotherapists, pain management sessions, and massage therapy provided by Embracia's Wellness RNs. Additionally, residents can access stress relief and mindfulness techniques, including massage, music, aromatherapy, and meditation.

It's worth noting that the Wellness RNs are a distinct group of professionals with a specific focus, separate from Embracia's other nursing staff who attend to clinical needs in the households.

Embracia's Wellness Program takes a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to enhancing residents' physical, social, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. This includes clinical, medication, and allied health support to manage pain and create an optimal environment for residents to achieve positive outcomes.
