Letter to the editor – Much needed upgrades for our elderly

It was pleasing to read about much needed upgrades for our elderly residents in Seymour following the completion of works at Barrabill House.

Providing the best possible care and support for our seniors is an essential part of any successful, thriving community.

In my role, I have been lucky enough to visit aged-care facilities of all varieties – and heard some fascinating stories from both residents and staff.

Getting to these facilities has been an opportunity to connect with individuals whose family legacies continue to shape our community, including park names, stadium honours, and road signs.

I look forward to meeting the residents of Barrabill House again in the near future and hearing how they feel about their upgraded facilities.
