Five signs it’s time to talk
If you’re supporting an older parent, grandparent or other loved one, you might not be sure when it’s the right time to start talking about residential aged care. Here are some common signs you may recognise that indicate home care may no longer be the best option for your loved one.

Age has no barriers for success
John Pascoe – Resident at St Martin’s
John had yearned to become a well-known musician in his younger years but unfortunately life caught up to him and he gave it up. Five decades passed and John was given an opportunity of a lifetime to help lift the spirits of his fellow aged care residents at St Martin’s Residential Aged Care Home.
Dressed as the King ‘Elvis Presley,’ John sang his heart out to an audience via Facebook livestream which was streamed across most of our residential aged care homes. It was a huge success! He was labelled the new “King” in town by USA Today. His videos would be seen across the world garnering more than 60,000 views in less than a few days.
John was gobsmacked, “I’m more than surprised. If you told me a few days ago, I’d have said ‘pull the other leg’. It’s just incredible.” John said he hadn’t felt this good in a very long time and attributes the team at St Martin’s for allowing him the opportunity to perform.
