Newsletters
Issue 23 of the NAC Newsletter is now available!
In Issue 23 of the NAC newsletter, we celebrated connection and community at our recent Afternoon Tea, bringing clients, families, and staff together for a joyful event filled with delicious treats and meaningful conversations.
Home care client Ruth was featured proudly showcasing her newfound independence on her new scooter. We also shared some beautiful snapshots from carer Denise’s vibrant garden, which surely brightened everyone’s day.
We highlight the importance of two upcoming events this month: World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, with a call to challenge ageism and support those affected, and NAIDOC Week, which honours the strength, vision, and legacy of Indigenous communities.
We also warmly invite you to join our Client Advisory Group (CAG). Your voice helps shape our care. Your lived experience is exactly what we need to hear your views. No other experience is necessary.
We also would love to feature your talents in our next issue! Do you paint, knit, garden, write, or maybe have a knack for woodworking? Perhaps you collect something interesting or have a hidden talent you’re proud of? Whatever it is, we want to hear about it!

Issue 22 of the NAC Newsletter is now available!
Issue 22 of the NAC newsletter marks significant farewells, with beloved GP Dr. Alison Bailey retiring after more than 20 years of service in the Macedon Ranges. Though retired, she will continue on a casual basis. Nurse Kerrie also retired, just short of her 10-year anniversary, having been a valued member of the residential and home care teams.
Home Care client Rueben is featured for his unique woodwork talent, discovered by chance over 40 years ago. His beautifully restored wood pieces have been shared with friends, family, and even the NAC office.
This newsletter emphasizes the importance of client feedback. The Client Advisory Group (CAG) encourages all clients to speak up - whether to share concerns or suggestions. NAC also welcomes new members to join the group to help shape care and services.
A reminder that the NAC Afternoon Tea is scheduled for May 14, 2025, offering a chance for community members to connect. The Afternoon Tea will be held at the NAC office: 63 Urquhart Street, Woodend VIC 3442.
