On Friday, 28 February, Resthaven held its 2025 Excellence Awards. The event recognised and celebrated Resthaven’s staff and volunteers, and the valuable and important work they do to contribute to the outstanding care and support of older people and their carers.
Held at the Wolf Blass Centre, Morphettville, almost 300 people attended the event, including the 80 award finalists, people who had nominated them, and special guests. Nominations for the awards were received from Resthaven residents, clients and families, as well as colleagues – with more than 1,800 nominations received.
Formal recognition programs, flexible work arrangements, increased rates of pay and additional leave entitlements are just some of the transformations Resthaven’s Executive Manager People & Culture, Sylvia Powell, has championed since joining Resthaven in 2020.
Coming on board soon after the appointment of CEO Darren Birbeck, the pair have worked together with the executive management team to boost the culture and conditions at Resthaven. They each strongly believe in workforce development and in celebrating the success of others. This International Women’s Day they are doing just that, while continuing to take steps to question unconscious bias, challenge discrimination and bring awareness to the areas where women’s equality is still a work in progress.
‘Wellness’ is a term that we hear a lot these days – and with good reason. The deliberate pursuit of activities, choices and lifestyle habits that improve our holistic health can lead to greater feelings of fulfillment and a better quality of life – something that is important at any age. Resthaven supports older people to pursue wellness, and this has been taken up a notch recently with the creation of a new position – the Community Wellness Manager.
Resthaven is proud to celebrate its 90th anniversary in 2025 with a series of events, activities and concerts to be held across all of Resthaven’s residential, community services and retirement lifestyle sites.
‘Ninety years ago, in the coastal southern suburb of Brighton, Resthaven opened its doors for the first time,’ Darren Birbeck, Resthaven CEO says. ‘Formed from the belief that older women with nowhere to live deserved charitable accommodation, members of the Methodist Church set about establishing this home.’
Always one to have his ear to the ground, Resthaven Aberfoyle Park resident Mr Lloyd Mattner, 92, has special inside knowledge when it comes to the solar installation on the roof of the aged care home.
His grandson, Chris Mattner, is the CEO of CME Solutions, the company that was awarded the project, alongside Suntrix and sustainability consultant, Dsquared Consulting. CME Solutions has grown from WM Electrical, the company that was started by Lloyd’s son, Wayne, in 1985.
Mrs Muriel Dick (101), of Resthaven Aberfoyle Park, has today received a gift and a personal thank you from the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) for her service to the country during World War II.
Muriel was a member of the Women’s Auxiliary Australian Air Force from 1942-1946, working as a tailoress, as well as in equipment.
Rusty Novice, a volunteer at Resthaven Aberfoyle Park, is a firm believer in the sense of satisfaction that comes from achieving.
‘I always encourage people to have a go,’ Rusty says. ‘Whether it’s someone from the community, my own kids, or now my grandkids, if someone comes along and asks if they can help, I’ll always say yes. Even if it’s just something small, I’ll find something that suits the individual, so they experience the satisfaction of accomplishment.’
On 26 August 2023, Mr and Mrs Maurie (90) and Margaret (86) Bradsworth celebrated a milestone 68 years of marriage at Resthaven Aberfoyle Park. Both Mr and Mrs Bradsworth grew up in Coburg, Victoria, meeting through their mutual love of tennis.
On Thursday 20 July 2023, Resthaven Aberfoyle Park celebrated its fifth birthday with a festive celebration at the home at 100 Hub Drive, Aberfoyle Park. Around 100 guests attended the festivities, including Board President, Mark Porter; CEO, Darren Birbeck; and Executive Managers, Tina Cooper, Mel Ottaway, and David Norton.
On 2 July, Mrs Audrey Niesche will celebrate her centenarian milestone, as she looks back on the past 100 years with pride. Born in Manchester, England, Mrs Niesche grew up with a World War I veteran father, and a nurturing stay-at-home mother.
