BaptistCare continues to be a frontline leader for change in domestic and family violence with the launch of our Men’s Behaviour Change programs (page 8). It was encouraging to have the Hon. Pru Goward MP, Minister for Women and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault present, and to hear

her praise of the work we have actioned over the last 30 years in this area. One of our clients, Leanne, who has benefited from this work bravely shared her story at the inaugural Halo Ball in Sydney last month. There was a significant turnout for the event, with money raised directly funding frontline services for women and children in need. Read more about the Halo Ball and Leanne’s story on page 13. On May 12, we celebrated International Nurses Day, acknowledging the passion of our nursing and care staff who carry out our purpose of Care you can trust day in and day out (page 16). As the weather gets colder, the most vulnerable members of our community are in desperate need of our services. Discover the ways you can give generously to those in need this Winter on page 18. We thank you for your continued support of all that we do.

NURTURING OUR SOUL Recently I read a post on Facebook by a colleague drawing our attention to the need to take in the things that nourish our soul. Here are his words, which were attached to this brilliant photo: “I love this photo! Last year I was staying in Ballina when I walked out on my hotel deck to be surprised by this beautiful sunset over the Richmond River. Suddenly in the midst of my busyness here was a moment to savour. Life is full of so many surprises if we have our eyes and hearts open to receive them.” Our Chaplains were given a book to read by John Ortberg, titled ‘Soul Keeping- Caring for the most important part of you’. We have all found this book to be very insightful and positively

challenging. The danger for us as Chaplains, and indeed for all Christians, is that we can be spiritually dry and serve out of a place of emptiness rather than fullness. Our real strength in service and ministry is finding ways to nourish our soul. John Ortberg reminds us that we and we alone are responsible for nurturing our soul, and suggests that Soul Care is essential to our total wellbeing. “A paradox of the soul is that it is incapable of satisfying itself, but it is also incapable of living without satisfaction. You were made for soulsatisfaction, but you will only ever find it in God.”

In this busy lifestyle we lead, with constant demands, multiple distractions, quite often bombarded by tragic events both locally and internationally, we can become fatigued and Trevor Wight overwhelmed. How do BAPTISTCARE SENIOR we restore our souls in CHAPLAIN this day and age?

My friend’s photo and commentary above gives us one example of how we might do that. Take the time to stop, look around for the places and spaces where God is already revealed (such as in creation), or present in an everyday event, and savour these experiences. In addition, we can all benefit from exploring this question: What are the places that provide sanctuary for you and how can you be more intentional about creating that time and space to take care of your soul? “…In this dry and weary land with no water in sight, my soul is dry and longs for You. My body aches for You, for Your presence. I have seen You in Your sanctuary and have been awed by Your power and glory... My soul overflows with satisfaction… with excitement in my heart and joy on my lips, I offer You praise.” Psalm 63:1-3, 5

The two year project has transformed the trusted centre which has been caring for the local Point Clare community for the past 35 years.

“We have also moved to cooking fresh on-site in a new state-ofthe-art kitchen and our chef is looking forward to preparing nutritious meals. This is another way in which we can ensure the best outcomes for our residents.”

BaptistCare Orana Centre Residential Manager, Lara McIntyre, said the care teams, residents and families are thrilled with the centre’s modern new look and premium features. “I’ve been here for 12 years now and it has been incredibly exciting to see all the changes that have taken place over the past 18 months,” she said. “We now have a new contemporary interior design, inspired by the coastal lifestyle, as well as a gorgeous new

for their loyalty over the past 35 years. “BaptistCare Orana Centre has been part of the local community since 1981. Our GPs have been coming here since we opened – they are just up the road, right next door to our pharmacist. This continuity of service is quite extraordinary and one of the special things that sets Orana apart from other facilities. It brings our residents – and their families – so much comfort to know they will see the same, familiar face whenever they need expert medical care.”

“Our teams care for 128 residents and we are now so much better equipped to provide for their diverse lifestyle needs, with better room designs and advanced technology enabling teams to continue to deliver the extraordinary level of care and expertise that the community has come to expect from us.”

The final stage of the redevelopment project will include a new landscaped Village Green and front yard gardens, a refurbished Chapel and resident activity area, demolition of the old buildings and will finish with a new car park and the re-locating of the current entry from Koolinda Avenue to Girralong Avenue. It is expected the works will be completed by October 2016.

Ms. McIntyre thanked the local community for their on-going support, not only throughout the redevelopment project but

GROWING OLD

TOGETHER

From their early days, Terry and Janet often thought how wonderful it would be to grow old together.

Married for 58 years, the couple moved from Sydney to the picturesque seaside town of Forster fifteen years ago to enjoy the relaxed coastal lifestyle of swimming, lawn bowls and golf. When Janet was diagnosed with dementia eight years ago, Terry devoted himself to caring for his beloved wife but as her condition worsened and Terry himself fell ill, he was encouraged to consider alternative arrangements. “I did a fair bit of research and so did my daughter. We met with my doctor and he talked to us about some of the local facilities and BaptistCare Kularoo Centre definitely stood out to us as somewhere that could offer Janet the type of support and care she needed,” said Terry.

of amazing - nothing is ever a trouble,” said Terry.

“I arrived early one morning and there’s one of the nurses dancing with Janet. They’re just so unbelievable.” “Janet sees the staff and she starts smiling so I know she’s happy. Kularoo really is a safe haven for her.” Though Janet’s diagnosis of dementia has changed their plans for the future, Terry, aged 81 years, explains their love for each other has endured. “It’s like winning the lotto every morning when I see Janet. As soon as she sees me she brightens up and I look forward to that everyday,” said Terry.

Press play to watch Terry & Janet’s love story

No doubt a difficult decision for anyone, Terry finally made the call to Kularoo 18 months ago, and he is still amazed at the warmth and dedication of each and every staff member he comes across. “Janet has been in care for 445 days. I’ve been there to have lunch with her nearly every single one of those days and the staff I’ve met are nothing short 6

“... I know she’s happy. Kularoo really is a safe haven for her.” “I can vividly remember Janet saying in our early days, wouldn’t it be lovely it we would grow old together – and that’s what’s happening.” “Janet’s not in the best of health but we’re still growing old together and we’re still very much in love.”


UNIFIED APPROACH NEEDED TO TACKLE FAMILY VIOLENCE

The Hon. Bill Shorten, Leader of the Opposition.

BaptistCare has called on the Federal Government for support and action on recommendations delivered in a comprehensive report that highlights the need for a unified approach to tackle the family and domestic violence crisis in Australia. The report is the outcome of the first National Family Violence Summit run by the Tara Costigan Foundation and sponsored by BaptistCare, in Canberra in March. It complies the recommendations from survivors, frontline providers, peak bodies, legal experts, researchers and agents for change. The Summit heard firsthand the incredible harm that is caused when services are not linked, adequately resourced, or readily accessible to women and children escaping domestic and family violence.

hear from BaptistCare’s DV experts

BaptistCare General Manager Community Services, Rob Ellis, explained the impact of fragmentation to the Sydney Morning Herald in their coverage of the report (Summit report calls for national commission to tackle domestic violence, April 21) "We literally work with women who turn up with a suitcase," he said, referring to BaptistCare’s inner Sydney crisis centre. "At that point, she is needing to make lots of difficult decisions and navigating a landscape that is incredibly complicated and disconnected. The lack of co-ordination actually adds to the trauma."

In order to respond to the critical need for integrated services that remove gaps and keep women and children safe, it is vital that Government, service providers and corporate Australia listen to the recommendations of the report, most importantly the establishment of a National Commission for Family Inclusion and Safety. BaptistCare believes that in order to realise an Australia where all families are safe and can readily access the support they need, a unified approach to tackle this crisis is needed. As an organisation, BaptistCare has been providing support to individuals and families impacted by domestic and family violence for over 30 years.

MINISTER GOWARD LAUNCHES MEN'S BEHAVIOUR CHANGE PILOTS BaptistCare and the NSW Government have confirmed their strong commitment to tackling domestic and family violence with the Hon. Pru Goward MP, Minister for Women and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, launching BaptistCare’s Men’s Behaviour Change (MBC) programs in Campbelltown and Tuggerah at two events held in April and May. BaptistCare is one of only seven accredited organisations in NSW that offers programs for men who use coercive, controlling and oppressive behaviours in their family relationships.

programs, two of four pilots funded by the NSW Government under a $5.28 million package for community-based behaviour change programs announced in August 2015.

families, through communitybased men's behaviour change programs, means that you are well placed to pilot the programs that will change a person’s violence and abusive attitudes and behaviours,” said Ms Goward. “Working with men who use violence is a specialised field, which takes into consideration multiple, and very serious, risk factors, including the safety risks and potentially fatal consequences for women and children.” “BaptistCare has also hosted the Men’s Behaviour Change Network to act as an advisory body for effective ways of working with men to reduce violence in homes and in communities since it was established in August 2013. I commend and thank BaptistCare

'whole of family' approach means that we are dedicated to ensuring the safety of women and children through our housing, counselling and support, and microfinance services,” he said. “Having worked in this space for 30 years, we became aware there was a real gap – very few organisations were working with men. We believe that unless we work with those men who use abusive and controlling behaviour in the home, the cycle of violence and abuse will not stop but instead be perpetuated into the next generation.” “Today, the issue of family and domestic violence in Australia is so significant – it is greater than we could have ever anticipated when we first began this vital work, so it is crucial that all stakeholders come together to stop it at its source.” www.baptistcare.org.au | TRUST Winter 2016

FOOD: BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER

AT THE GRACEWOOD Chamara in The Gracewood kitchen

It was a coup when BaptistCare secured the talents of Chamara Pathiranage as its Chef across its Macquarie Park aged care services in 2009. With Pathiranage opening up The Gracewood restaurant for residents and their friends each month, TRUST Editor Elizabeth Byrne, who has always fancied herself as a food reviewer and critic, visited the retirement living-based restaurant and savoured every moment. “The first chef I worked with was French, so I learned a lot about French cuisine from him. I’ve always really loved the European style of cooking, especially French and Italian,” Chamara says. “I love going to the markets to get my fresh produce. What’s

in season is always the tastiest and easiest to cook with, plus it’s vibrant.”

Recent guests to The Gracewood restaurant have feasted on dishes including potato and leek soup with pan It is clear from Australia’s fried potato gnocchi and ham, growing passion with TV Japanese tuna salad with ponzu cooking shows and celebrity dressing, roast spiced chicken chefdom that technique is served on a harissa sauce with everything, and for Chamara, herbs, and chocolate mousse braising is his firm cake served with favourite. chantilly cream PEOPLE WHO “I love it – it’s and wafer. all about slow “Our monthly cooking, Friday night retaining and dinner sees a enhancing the team of three flavours.

Chamara has worked with the best, including David Bitton and Sean Connolly at Sheraton on the Park, following Connolly when he moved to the former Astral at Star City Casino.

HALO BALL HIGHLIGHTS HUMAN ELEMENT BEHIND FAMILY VIOLENCE

Over 400 social influencers and guests attended the inaugural Halo Ball in May, united in support of women and children impacted by family violence. The unique event, co-hosted by BaptistCare and the Tara Costigan Foundation at the Sydney Sofitel Wentworth, raised awareness of the human element behind the cause while delivering a night full of live entertainment. A key role in the evening was played by BaptistCare’s client, Leanne, whose personal story highlighted the vital need for frontline services for women and children. The mother of five children introduced a short film, which tells the story of her escape from domestic violence. (continued next page)

“If it wasn’t for BaptistCare, I wouldn’t be here tonight. Many women don't make it. At least one woman dies from domestic violence every week in Australia. I escaped the violence; I am one of the lucky ones. I have my children and they have their mother,” Leanne said.

Mr Rob Ellis, urged guests to understand why domestic and family violence is something that affects every Australian, with a comparison to Martin Luther King Junior’s insight into racial prejudice.

The night began with a special performance from the Newtones, a capella group from Newtown High School of the Performing Arts with their rendition of Grammy awardwinner Beyonce’s Halo.

“Often domestic and family violence is seen as someone else’s problem. “If I’m not a perpetrator of violence and I don’t know a victim, what does this issue really have to do with me?” However if I stand back and take the time to truly see the size and nature

of the problem, I realise that it does involve me. A famous Baptist leader, Martin Luther King Jnr, addressed the issue of the bystander in relation to racial equality. His words ring true for another complex and entrenched social problem in our country, and in our communities: domestic and family violence.” “He said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly.”” CEO of the Tara Costigan Foundation, Mr Michael Costigan, shared his family's personal story of tragedy with Tara's murder, and told guests it was Tara's death that has led him to pledge his life work to ending domestic violence, and establishing Tara's Angels case workers. As the Ball came to a close, guests were wowed by the incredible voice of Belinda Adams, award-winning

DEE’S PASSION

FOR NURSING CELEBRATED

As International Nurses Day was celebrated around the world on 12 May, Sydney-based nurse Dee Sookaloo was featured in a new film showcasing her passion for the nursing profession. BaptistCare Care Team Manager, Dee Sookaloo, is one of BaptistCare’s 2777 nurses and care staff making a difference across the organisation’s residential aged care and home services.

agrees that it’s the dedication of the thousands of individuals working together as a team and providing the lifetransforming care that allows the organisation’s mandate to be met day in and day out.

“BaptistCare promises ‘Care You Can Trust’ and to me, that is care that comes from the heart. When you know that there are people that are doing such great things out there - they are doing it from the heart - because that’s what they believe in,” says Dee.

“I’m sure many people would agree that nursing is a tough job. Caring for others can be a tiresome, stressful and often challenging role. But I also know that nurses have one of the most fulfilling, important and timehonoured jobs in our country,” says Ross.

“... people that are doing such great things out there - they are doing it from the heart”

“It is especially pertinent that on International Nurses Day, we recognise each and every one of our BaptistCare nurses and care staff who live out our purpose every day for our clients and residents.”

Despite being faced with the natural challenges that come with such a role, Dee remains positive in her approach to her work. “When I wake up in the morning, I wake up with a smile, ready to go, because I know that when I come to work, I am working with a great team,” says Dee. International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every May 12, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale's birth.

Press play to hear about Dee’s passion for nursing

Dee believes that compassion and commitment comes when you are surrounded by support, and this applies to both staff and residents in care. “What I have learnt about BaptistCare is that no matter who you are or where you come from you will be embraced. And you will be made to feel as part of a team. You become a family.”

COME IN, OUT OF THE COLD Did you know? In the greater Sydney area… There are approximately 120 rough sleepers in the Woolloomooloo area on any given night. Over the past 12 months at BaptistCare HopeStreet, we have been able to: expand our Employment Training Program; bring our dream of a social enterprise coffee van to fruition; raise the necessary funds to relocate and fit-out our community café in a new and more appropriate space, and much more. The good news continues; when you partner with us and donate to BaptistCare, you can be assured that your donation goes towards supporting our Community Service centres, 18

including our homelessness support programs, providing emergency meals and food packs, helping women and children find safety from domestic violence, and vital grief counselling. There are many elements to our work at BaptistCare, but perhaps the most critical part is placing value on people who often no longer value themselves. But, when everyone else has given up we continue to shine the light of hope into some very dark places. Why? Because these are God’s people. Yes some people we work with have some very complex issues but the fact remains, they are created in God’s image, He loves them and He expects us to treat them as we would expect to be treated. (Luke 6:31)

... they are created in God’s image, He loves them and He expects us to treat them as we would expect to be treated. There is hope… and that hope is you. As we approach the Winter months and the weather turns colder, the number of our rough sleeping community who have passed away over the last 12 months is at the forefront of our minds. Recently, at HopeStreet, we were mourning the loss of yet another community member when someone questioned, “Who will miss her?” Of course, we will miss her and a few of the local ‘rough sleeping’ community will miss her, but who else will notice? It is a harsh reality to face that in a ‘civilised’ society like ours; we are failing to adequately care for our most vulnerable.


Winter is the toughest time of year for disadvantaged people. Whether in the city or a regional town, the Winter months can be quite cold. We urgently need your help. Please give generously this Winter as we seek to ease the pain and suffering of our vulnerable brothers and sisters who are doing it tough.

Your gift will save a life. In addition to your financial support, you may also contact your nearest BaptistCare Community Centre to donate non-perishable food and blankets.

Did you know? In regional NSW ‌ Over the last 12 months BaptistCare has commenced new community service initiatives in the Northern Rivers. The first two services to commence are BaptistCare StreetCare in Lismore and No Interest Loans (NILS) at Tweed Heads.

StreetCare volunteers engage with individuals and families providing a free BBQ and a community connection point from which relationships of trust can develop and referrals to other relevant support services can be made. In Tweed Heads, BaptistCare is piloting its first local church based NILS program, in partnership with Banora Point Community Church, providing low-income earners with fair access to small loans with no fees or interest.
