Written testimonials

The following testimonials are from Wellness & Lifestyles’ valued clients.

Each year while we conduct our Quality Management Audits we ask our clients to provide opinions on W&L as an organisation, our services and our therapists.  We also ask if there are areas of our services that can be improved upon or new services they would like us to consider providing.

“Here at Marten Residential we have two Occupational Therapists from Wellness & Lifestyles that assist us with our allied health needs. We have recognised that Occupational Therapists can actually do all the mobility assessments that a Physiotherapist can, as well as complete any resident Complex Pain Management treatments. On top of this, they assist us with showering and toileting assessments and even PAS and Cornell Assessments when required. It’s great to have access to this wide scope of knowledge when we need it and it often allows us to get our ACFI submissions in earlier.” Belinda Sharp – ECH Marten Residential Care Centre

“Thankyou so much to Michael and your team for doing a very professional job. I have received the bound report and will visit MFH today to hand it over.
MFH had their 2 day Accreditation on 12th&13th and the report was valuable evidence in our strive for high standards. Michael was fantastic and he delivered an excellent education session that I would recommend to all Aged Care facilities and care staff including GPs. We hope to continue our association with Wellness&Lifestyles Aust.” Cathy Louden – Aged Care Access Iniative Project RN
