And the Oscar goes to…

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO………. It was Oscars night at the HSFA for Mountview Frailcare residents  and WHAT a glamorous affair it was! The ladies and gents turned up in their finery in style, and after receiving their much deserved Oscar’s, were cheered on by their fans, families and the Paparazzi down the VIP red carpet, and whisked into a sparkling room of movie glitz and fame! The movie stars enjoyed a photo session, gourmet servings of food and delicious wine. Thanks goes to the delightful hosts of the day Actress Louisa and Actor Vuyani as well as fabulous Nabilah Ebrahim. Note faces are blurred out due to the POPI Act. All residents will receive their photos.

 

Long Service Excellence

Long Service Excellence

At our Long Service Awards lunch, the HSFA Board and management team recognised the valuable contributions that several of our employees have made to our organisation. The HSFA staff is the core of our organisation and their passion for helping our residents is what makes a difference every day. The awards for 10 years went to Caroline Godfrey, Nombuyiselo Rawusana, Nokuthula Gana and Emma Bailey all from Support Centre and the awards for 15 years went to Freddie Williams from the Facilities Department as well as Xoliswa Fekade, Noluvo Mdemka and Daphne Claasen from the Support Centre. The awards for 20 years went to Lionel Wilson from Human Resources Department, Desire Booysen from Support Centre and Eureka Haefele from Independent Living. Sara Lintnaar from Mountview, who was awarded the certificate for 35 special years of service, gave a beautiful speech and Georgina Arone from the Support Centre, who made the 40-year milestone, was sadly absent but celebrated all the same! Thank you all for your loyalty and dedication to the wellbeing of our residents.

Phenomenal women at the HSFA

Phenomenal women at the HSFA

The phenomenal women of Independent Living (both staff and residents) kindly donated gifts to those living in our HSFA Frail Care (some on subsidies and/or no family support). Woman’s month ended with a fun tea at Vonke House with some guest speakers!
On Woman’s day earlier in the month both the Assisted Living and Frail Care units enjoyed a delicious lunch prepared by GERATEC to be reminded of just special women are! Thank you all!
HSFA skills development

HSFA skills development

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” – Benjamin Franklin
The HSFA believes in upskilling our staff. Over the past year our staff have been involved in a range of development training courses and encouraged to apply their learnings to our everyday work functions. The improvement in individual and group work performances in turn betters our service offering and level of care to our residents. In one year, we had 71 different courses which had 499 attendees, as well as 73 induction and orientation courses. Highlights were the Occupational Health and Safety courses including Fire and Emergency, First Aid and Health and Safety Warden courses as well as Home Management and Dementia training programmes. Computer training in our new computer training centre allowed ISimplifi to supercharge our staff with a range of computer and online skills. Thank you to our Management team for these incredible opportunities, and thank you HR for arranging these special awards ceremonies to make us all proud!
“As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.”
– Bill Gates
