Welcome to Ashburn House
Look long and hard at people who live lovingly. Notice how beautifully they age. Notice how relevant their wealth or status is. Notice how much other people want to be in their presence. Notice how they smile. nnn
“When I smiled at them, they scarcely believed it; the light of my face was precious to them. Job 29:24
Hello to Everyone, Summer is over and Autumn is here, the year is passing quickly. Once again natural disasters have affected many Australians but whilst there has been a terrible toll on loss of property there was minimal human loss for which we are eternally grateful. Australians have once again shown that we all work together in time of needs. We would like to congratulate Sheela Kharal who has worked as an AIN whilst undertaking her studies. She has graduated as a Registered Nurse. Over the next few months we will be giving Ashburn House a face lift, new floor coverings and painting. I apologize in advance for any inconvenience that may occur. The Flu Season is on its way. Consent forms for the Flu & Pneumonia vaccinations have been sent out to relatives. Please make sure you return them. Medicare & Pensioner cards have expiry dates, please make sure when you receive your relatives new cards that you give a copy to the home so we can update our files. If you don’t and we only have the expired Medicare number, Medicare does not pay for medical treatment. So if you have received new cards since your relative entered the home, please give Ashburn a copy. Thanks! I will be on annual leave sailing the high seas from 5th March to the beginning of April. Cora Inzitari will be managing the helm whilst I am away. As you can see I am practicing my nautical lingo for my cruise. Easter will soon follow and I take this opportunity to wish you a safe and Happy Easter. Regards, Barbara Walsh

Message from our Senior Manager I’m very happy and excited to be part of Christadelphian Aged Care. I have a passion for aged care having come from a quality improvement background. I have worked as an aged care quality assessor with the Agency, a facility manager and as a registered nurse in cardiac, triage and aged care. I’m keen to share my industry knowledge and experience gained in having assessed a variety of systems and processes across a number of aged care facilities throughout NSW, ACT and Victoria. My main responsibility is for clinical governance across the homes under Christadelphian Aged Care. Fundamentally, this means achieving the best possible care for residents using a defined approach. This is done by focusing on what’s best for the resident and then building the service or environment around those needs. This will better enable us to approach challenges and continuous improvement activities proactively and confidently. My wife Maria and I have three daughters, all of who play for the State League competition with Netball NSW. Two are currently at university studying physiotherapy and business respectively and the third currently undertaking her HSC exams this year. I coach representative netball for the Under 12s age group for the Hills District Netball Association NSW and I enjoy travel and culture, although I haven’t had much of an opportunity to do so in recent times. I have however travelled extensively throughout the USA with the highlight being at Elvis’ Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. I’m friendly, approachable and I very much look forward to learning more about each home and meeting members of the Christadelphian care team. - Jose Rigor Senior Manager, Operations

Leisure & Lifestyle Report

Welcome to 2014! And what a great year it has begun and will be... After a lovely Christmas and busy time with all our Christmas parties we have settled back into the routine of enhancing the lives of our residents of Ashburn House. Once again we thoroughly enjoyed having the Christadelphian young ones join us in assisting with activities leading up to Christmas and over New Year involving them in enriching the daily activities of our dear residents. The residents enjoyed a fantastic fashion parade put on by Ellie with Katie modeling along with herself and Micah the fabulous presenter of the fashions. During their time here creative pictures and artworks were undertaken and displayed about the facility and assistance given in locating residents to and from various areas of activities. Australia Day was celebrated with gusto; dulcet tones of Australiana songs and tunes were heard and sung about the facility along with a great big Aussie barbeque held in Cronulla Theatre and gardens for residents, relatives and staff. It was a wonderful day of fellowship and fun for all with many in attendance asking that we do it again soon! We acknowledged Chinese New Year with decorations and customs shared with our Chinese staff. Valentine’s Day was had with special nibbles and treats for all. The famous Bird Lady Krissy Stanley appeared again for a well anticipated visit with her colourful birds and Tiny our favourite cuddly bunny. Krissy and her famous birds continue to appear on well known TV shows including Bondi Vet and Better Homes and Gardens. She is also good friends with the handsome Bondi vet Dr Chris Brown and Dr Harry. As we anticipate up and coming events for St Patrick’s Day, Shrove Tuesday (Pancake Day), Easter and Mothers’ Day activities continue with our regular weekly church services, bus outings, monthly bible group, art classes, chat groups and Knit and Natter. We wish Leisure and Lifestyle staff member Jacinta a speedy recovery in her recent illness. She is greatly missed by many residents and their families along with her co workers. Jacinta’s enthusiasm, compassion and kindness to others has been an asset to Ashburn House for many years. We farewell departed residents in John Pizarro, Jean Hand, David Burns, David Thurlow and Thomas Buckley our prayers and thoughts are with their families. “The greatest gift we can give one another is rapt attention to ones another’s existence” Until next time, Libby

Activity Assistant Program I took up the job to work at Ashburn as an Activity Assistant not knowing what to expect. All I really
wanted was something to do in the holidays and some money on the side, but what I got from working at Ashburn was honestly one of the best and most
rewarding things I’ve ever done in my life. I met so
many people and made many new friends, learnt a
whole load of new skills and got out of my comfort
zone and tried to really get out there with the help of
my two Activity Assistant buddies, Ellie and Katie. The residents became my second family in a sense, being
with them almost every day, all day for 6 weeks and I love and miss them now that the program has ended.
From the daily milkshakes in the Bronte Café at lunch
to the endless ball games we played with the residents to the awesome fashion show we put on for the
residents, I had so much fun and I will treasure the experience, memories and friendships made while
working at Ashburn. Thanks for the opportunity and the life changing experience! - Micah Strachan
When I was asked to type up this short report in regards to my time spent in the Ashburn House Activities Assistants Program 2014 I had no idea where to start. After much thinking though, I think one of major things that impacted on my life was the relationships that I built and the people I met there even though I was only there for six weeks. Every single individual had a different story to tell and was willing to share it with me while walking with them in the gardens or on the way to have their hair done at the salon downstairs. Everybody is unique and special in their own way. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to build friendships with all the people who work and live at Ashburn House and hear their life stories. - Katie Norwood
Over the six week Christmas holiday period I was involved in the youth holiday program as an Activity Assistant. This experience far exceeded my expectations. When I first applied for the position I thought that when I am in a nursing home, I would love a young energetic person to come in and spend time with me to make my day a little brighter. But at the end of my time there I really don't know who enjoyed the time more, me or the residents. It was such an amazing experience I will never forget, each resident was able to teach me so much, just as I was able to teach them things. In my time there I was involved in so many amazing things. We ran a big fashion show where I was able to bring in clothing from home. We had clothing of all different styles from Indian dresses, to big formal gowns, to 1920’s flapper dresses, to everything in between. The residents loved this show so much! The women looked at the clothes and played with the fabrics and told us about how they used to wear things like these. I brought in 2 puppies that they loved patting and spending time with, and have brought them in a few times since. At Christmas time we decorated the home and dressed up as Santa's helpers as a volunteer brought in a big dog dressed as a rain dear. I made lots of craft things with them that they loved doing so much. We painted a tree and put there faces on it, and they loved having themselves on the walls. For Australia Day we dressed up and had a BBQ that they all attended with Australian music. This was really something I loved doing and once finishing the program I have started doing some casual shifts at the home doing RAO work. I will apply for the holiday program again in the future, and would recommend it to anyone! I would love to thank all the staff, nurses, and residents and there family's for being so kind to us and helping us within this program. - Ellie Mansfield

Hostel News - by Cecil Salmon
Hostel numbers are coming and going and sometimes time stands still. Here we are entering into autumn with the New Year beginning to slip by us. We have lost many dear friends and we have gained many more. Let us show them a happy time in this lovely home where their time may be spent in playing games and outings as well as other activities. Bible teachers warn us that the time of the signs of the kingdom is drawing when Jesus will return again to set it up. So He warns us to watch and pray to make ourselves ready. Remember his parable of the five wise and five foolish women and make ourselves ready when he comes. Let us live in great hope of a place then. “Even so, Come Lord Jesus”
Staff Profile - Katie’s Story Hi everyone! My name is Katie and I’m one of the Activities Assistances at Ashburn House. This is just a little snapshot into my life about where I came from and where my life has taken me so far. I was born up in Brisbane in the year 1991 and then moved to Sydney just when I was two years old with my family (photo to the right) and been here ever since. Growing up in a loving and supportive environment has allowed me to try different things and explore many options. Last year I finished my primary teaching degree at the University of Western Sydney. It’s very exciting (and nerve-racking at times) to think that I am now a fully qualified teacher as it has been something I’ve wanted to do since I went to school! I’ve also dipped my feet into hospitality working in restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars. This job helped me get through University and all the other miscellaneous expenses along the way. I also thoroughly enjoy working in hospitality as you meet so many different people and are continuously learning new and different things. One of my other occupations which I have now been involved in is aged care. I first came to Ashburn House at the beginning of last year when I heard about the program they were running for Christadelphian Young People. I sent in my application and kept my fingers crossed as I had heard so many good things about it. Thankfully I received a call and I had got the job! After now spending around three months at Ashburn House, I am able to reflect and try and work out what I’ve enjoyed most about it. I think the best part about it is that you get to spend quality time with the residents and also have the opportunity to teach them different things or in some cases be taught by them. I hope the residents have learnt something from me, whether it be from the art classes, music games or trivia questions as I have certainly learnt a lot from them. I’m always trying out different things and being involved in different activities so I’m not sure where my life is headed at this present time. I want to give teaching a good shot for quite a few years. I also want to open up my own café one day but aged care is also a job that has taught me a lot and an occupation that I could easily work in. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. Thanks Katie for sharing your story with Ashburn
Shrove Tuesday DID YOU KNOW... Shrove Tuesday is also known as Shrovetide Tuesday, Pancake Tuesday and Pancake Day. It is the day preceding Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. Shrove Tuesday is determined by Easter and therefore it’s date changes annually. Pancakes are associated with the day preceding Lent because they were a way to use up rich foods such as eggs, milk and sugar before the fasting season of the 40 days of Lent. The liturgical fasting emphasised eating plainer food and refraining from food that would give pleasure: in many cultures, this means no meat, dairy or eggs. Why called Shrove Tuesday? The word shrove is the past tense of the English verb shrives, which means to confess or obtain absolution for one’s sins by way of doing penance. Thus Shrove Tuesday gets its name from the custom for Christians to be “shriven” before the start of Lent. Shrove Tuesday is the last day of “Shrovetide” somewhat analogous to the Carnival tradition that developed separately in countries of Latin Europe. The term Mardi Gras is French for Fat Tuesday, which refers to the practice of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season, which begins on Ash Wednesday. These latter names predated the Reformation and referred to the common Christian tradition of eating special rich foods before the fasting season of Lent. Countries such as the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada refer to Shrove Tuesday as “Pancake Day” or “Pancake Tuesday” due to the tradition of eating pancakes on the day. In Ireland, the day is known as Mairt Inide meaning Shrovetide Tuesday and Pancake Tuesday. In German American populations it is known as Fastnacht Day. In the Netherlands, it is known as “vastenavond” or in Limburgish dialect: “vastelaovond”. Finland calls it laskiainen and is generally celebrated by eating green pea soup and sweet bread pastry. Sweden, it is known as Fettisdagen (Fat Tuesday) and a type of pastry called semla is eaten. Lithuanians eat pancakes and a type of doughnut called spurgos. In Portuguese, Spanish and Italian speaking countries it is known as Carnival or Mardi Gras, where it is celebrated with street processions and fancy dress. The most famous of these events is the Brazilian Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, while the Venetians celebrate carnival with a masquerade. Festivities in some parts of England as part of community celebrations many towns held traditional “mob football” games, some dating back to the 12th century. The practice mostly died out in the 19th century after the passing of the Highway Act 1835 banned playing football on public highways! A number of towns have maintained the tradition with local names given to the inaugural event. The most famous pancake race has been held since 1445 in Buckinghamshire. Traditionally contestants usually women, carry a frying pan and race over a 415 yard course to the finishing line. With strict rules the contestants have to toss their pancake at both the start and finish, as well as wear an apron and a scarf. Traditionally, when men compete they have to dress up as a housewife! The race is followed by a church service.
Pastoral Care CAN GOD HEAL A BROKEN HEART? It was a comedian who said, "If broken hearts were commercials, we'd all be on TV." In some strange way he was saying we each have a broken heart, not physically I hope, but inside, where no-one else can see. One of the most popular groups of the 1970s was the Bee Gees. They sang a song that asked five questions and added one plea: "How can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again." You might recall the song. The Bee Gees never answered that question. But we know many people have broken hearts because of all sorts of reasons, death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job, loss of status, loss of health, betrayal by a friend, loss of a child and, yes, loss of your childhood. All of these reasons can leave you a broken man or woman. What is a wound? If you have ever had an injury or a deep cut, you know how painful it is and how it hurts to be touched. Often, sorrow and loss are like deep wounds. They can be so painful that it seems no one or nothing can make the pain go away. Sometimes our heart is so broken that we can't even express the words and nothing seems to take the pain away. Is there hope for healing a broken heart? Something or someone has just broken your heart. You were caught off-guard by a betrayal, a shocking behaviour, or loss of a loved one. Suddenly you are feeling like you've lost all hope. You can feel a physical aching in your chest that leaves you wounded and scarred. How can you ever hope to recover or discover what steps will end this suffering? We know that emotions are a vital part of the way we are made. Yet we can't understand why it takes so long to heal from emotional injuries and others try to help. Many times, our wounded heart is the result of someone else's actions toward us, and other times it's because of actions we took. Sometimes too, it's a combination of both. But in trying to encourage us, they can't seem to say the right thing. Like a deep wound, a broken heart will not heal overnight. Like some medicines that burn when you apply them to a skin wound, so can a well-meaning friend who says the wrong thing at the wrong time. Who wants to pour rubbing alcohol on an open wound? We search the stores to find an ointment that we can apply to our skin wound that will not burn and then cover it gently with a Band-Aid. It's the same way with our broken heart. We need the right ointment to bring about healing. They say time heals all wounds. But what about the wounds that people can't see? We can't go to the doctors and say "I have a broken heart, can you fix it!" So who can we go to when we have a broken heart, is there anyone who cares? Who are those with the broken heart? They say time heals all wounds. But what about the wounds that people can't see? The pain of past hurts rules many lives. It simmers, it stifles, and sometimes it shuts a person completely down. However, God heals hurts. He is waiting and ready to touch our deepest pain if we will let Him. In a sense, His healing is another divine exchange, in which we offer to Him our hurt and He offers to us His healing. Psalm 147:3 states, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (or sorrows)" "Brokenhearted" refers to the wounds in the innermost portion of ourselves. Most of us do not know how to go about receiving Our deepest sympathies have this wonderful healing gift of God. Some of us have not been aware gone out to the families who that this level of deep healing was available. I like what Max Lucardo have lost their loved ones over says in his marvellous book "He still moves Stones". Why did God leave the Summer period. us one tale after another of wounded lives being restored? So we could be grateful for the past? So we could look back with amazement at what Jesus did? No. The purpose of these stories is not to tell us what Jesus did. Their purpose is to tell us what Jesus does. 'Everything that was written in the past was written to teach us.' Paul penned. 'The Scriptures give us patience and encouragement so that we can have hope.' (Romans 15:4) These are not just Sunday school stories. Not romantic fables. Not somewhere-over-the-rainbow illusions. They are historic moments in which a real God met real pain so we could answer nnn the question, 'Where is God when I hurt?' He's not just doing it just for them. He is doing it for me. He's doing it for you." - By Chris Witts
Bereavements
Alzheimer’s Disesase Outside of a cure, the most vital need of people with Alzheimer’s disease and their loved ones is real emotional connection. How do we continue to communicate with someone with AD who doesn’t talk or remember me? How can we be with people with AD so they are not left feeling the pain of isolation, abandonment, and loneliness? How do we overcome our own feelings of selfconsciousness, awkwardness, and fear of AD to be fully present with someone with dementia? Some pointers: try to remember how it is to feel safe while vulnerable, how to let go of judgment, to offer empathy, to see the humanity and vulnerability in every person, to remember that everyone matters, how to communicate joy, understanding, and love without words or memories - through body language, emotional connection, and the willingness to be fully present in front of another human being.
Poem
TWO MOTHER’S REMEMBERED I had two mothers – two mothers I claim Two different people, yet with the same name. Two separate women, diverse by design, But you loved them both because they were mine. The first was the mother who carried me here, Gave birth and nurtured and launched my career. She was the one whose features I bear, Complete with the facial expressions I wear. She gave her love, which follows me yet, Along with the examples in life she set. As I got older, she somehow younger grew, And we’d laugh as just mothers and daughters do. But then came the time that her mind clouded so, And I sensed that the mother I knew would soon go. So quickly she changed and turned into the other, A stranger who dressed in the clothes of my mother. Oh, she looked the same, at least at arm’s length, But now she was the child and I was her strength. We’d come full circle, we women three, My mother the first, the second and me. And if my own children should come to a day, youcomes smile at someone, is anaway, action of When“Every a new time mother and the olditgoes love, gift tonothing that person, beautiful I’d ask of athem that Iadidn’t do -thing” Love both of your mothers both loved you. - MotherasTeresa - Anonymous

Physio Corner SHARING WITH OTHERS We are regularly reminded of the benefits from exercise and activity to improve our daily life especially as we age; it therefore becomes increasingly more important for us to keep our bodies moving. Our mobility levels may change suddenly, we may have feelings of uncertainty, or our desire to remain socially interactive may decrease. These changes are common to many people and finding the courage to overcome this may seem impossible at times. Participating in a regular exercise group or activity enables us to adjust to changes of ourselves and others whilst receiving the rich rewards physically, socially and emotionally. Tai Chi brings residents together and creates feelings of wellbeing, involvement, participation, acceptance and a sense of belonging to all those who attend. Tai Chi is an “all inclusive” seated program, where residents are positioned together in a circle joining all equally as one group. Each resident brings something unique to the group “themselves”. Judith Forst, a regular attendee from one of our facilities said she remembered her first time coming along to Tai Chi. She said, “I felt safe, warm and comfortable to be with a group of caring people who accepted each other and shared each others company, and the interaction between the group was so special”. There are many physical benefits with Tai Chi, but the emotional and social acceptance builds you with strength. Other residents report to our Physio team daily of their own personal rewards by attending Tai Chi. There are many social and active groups available to all our residents and families looking for new friends. So come along and try Tai Chi if it is available at your facility and experience the wonderful enjoyment of sharing with others. - Megan Higgins, Physio Assistant
Volunteer Corner After the hectic rush of Christmas, January was a much quieter month at Ashburn, with many volunteers and families away on holiday. It was wonderful to have some new, young faces helping out with our residents during their school holidays. We are always so grateful for the energy and enthusiasm they bring and the residents appreciate the time spent with them, so much so, that one resident even wrote a card expressing this to one young volunteer. What a blessing they are to our facility! There have a range of activities planned for 2014: some old favourites like Knit and Natter, Maryanne’s Discussion Group and Movie Days, Rhonda’s Bingo afternoons and Jill’s Art Class. A new Reading Group has started up, so it’s just as well a wonderful volunteer tidied up our library recently and it’s a pleasure to sit in there again! We are also looking forward to our big annual event in September which is to be an International High Tea – the idea being to have delicacies from around the world for the residents to try out and to invite their families to enjoy with them. Our Pastoral Care volunteers have begun a program of ongoing education to help them with their care and support of our residents. We have been privileged to have a few more carers join our team this year so that more residents can have the benefit of their time and love. And on the subject of education: the mandatory training for volunteers is scheduled for 18 March and 23 September 2014. We look forward to a wonderful year together, serving the needs of our wonderful community at Ashburn House. God Bless, Cathy Cathy Strachan, Volunteer & Pastoral Care Coordinator 0435 814 411

Read, Rest & Relax! WHAT’S YOUR NAME AGAIN?
Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades. Over the years they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures. Lately, their activities had been limited to playing cards a few times a week. One day when playing cards, one looked at the other and said, "Now don't get mad at me. I know we've been friends a long time, but I just can't think of your name. I've thought and thought, but I can't remember it. Please tell me what your name is." Her friend glared at her. For at least three minutes she just stared and glared. Finally she said, "How soon do you need to know?
