Coffee, connection and cards
Colleen and Genny share the care
When you have known each other for 60 years and catch up for coffee every week, there’s never a shortage of things to talk about!
For Southcare Stars Colleen and Genny, their regular coffee dates are a cherished ritual — built on decades of friendship, laughter and shared life moments.
And while their coffee orders may be different – Colleen enjoys a hot chocolate and Genny enjoys cappuccino – these two have much in common!
“We talk about everything,” Colleen laughs.
“Family, the kids, grandkids, shopping, holidays… you name it. Anything that brings us happiness — that’s what we enjoy most.”
So, when it came time for Genny to look for in-home support, she turned to someone she trusted — Colleen.
Colleen has been with Southcare for close to 10 years and enjoys help with domestic assistance, transport, window cleaning and gardening.
“I am so happy with Southcare, and I know what good service is because I was a nurse for 44 years,” Colleen says.
With that reassurance, Genny didn’t hesitate.
Through Southcare’s Share the Care referral program, not only did Genny find the support she needed — they both enjoyed a $100 gift voucher.
And what did they spend it on? Well, things that bring them happiness of course!
If you have a loved one who would benefit from Southcare’s in-home support, refer them to us and you could enjoy a $100 voucher too!
