Hi, I was looking at the calender for April. Posted is the Anzac Day Service which i thought was really good. I have a question if people can comment please. Is it appropriate to run a Anzac Day service for my clients on the 24th of April.? As we are only open on a wednesday and Thursday each week and Anzac day is a public holiday on 25th? What is everyones feelings about this.
I have been conducting the service before the actual date for years as we don't work public holidays. The residents are always grateful to have the service no matter what day. I also make sure the care staff on shift on ANZAC day are aware of it and give out poppies ( which I supply) and put tv's on channels which may play the morning service.
Hi Debbie I agree with others that you do not have to celebrate a holiday on the actual date it occurs I took what I called activity director liberty and celebrated the days that was convenient to all
I just renewed my membership and going into my second year. When I got the notification that my first year was expiring, I knew I had to renew, there was no doubt in my mind. GoldenCarers is PRICELESS! As a DJ and mobile entertainer for over 38 years much of my business is with assisted living facilities and GoldenCarers has taken it above and beyond my competition. It always has something useful and too many to point out. I could no imagine running my business without GoldenCarers. You guys ROCK!
