Congratulations to Lynn Brooks from Boandik St Marys. You’ve been recognised as a #HLACHero for being a valued member of the housekeeping team, showcasing generosity, kindness and adaptability throughout the pandemic.
With the implementation of ‘one worker, one home’ covid-19 rosters across three aged care sites, Lynn agreed to change from working shifts Monday – Friday at two residential homes in Mount Gambier to cover a 7 day a week roster, cooking and doing kitchen assistant shifts in at Boandik St Marys.
Not only did she change her shifts, she also volunteered to amend her approved annual leave and will be cooking on Christmas Day to enable another Cook to have the day off.
Lynn has been a valued member of the Boandik Housekeeping team for 25 years and as her colleagues put it “she has been a hero for our residents cooking quality meals”.
