ValleyView Residence was presented with the semi-finalist award for the Prime Super Employer Excellence in Aged Care Award in the Western Australian Regional Achievement and Community Awards.
The awards are to encourage, acknowledge and reward the valuable contributions in which individuals, communities and businesses are making throughout regional WA.
The aged-care facility had previously been nominated for the award in July for its commitment to providing the best care for patients suffering with dementia through upgrades to make the facility more homely and training for staff.
On Friday, October 19, Valleyview Residence staff went to the gala presentation dinner at the Hyatt Regency, Perth and where they placed as a semi-finalist.
ValleyView Residence manager Joy Halleron said it would have been nice to take out the win, but they’re still very proud of their efforts.
“We were up against some stiff competition, but we felt incredibly proud to be able to represent Collie,” she said.
“We have more good things to share next year.”
