The Comlink Paper Planes Programme This Comlink programme has been set up to enhance the opportunities of interaction between Senior Adults and pre school children It is an interesting programme that is showing results for both ages It is conducted within the kindergarten surrounds which is a familiar venue for the children The benefit for the children is almost unmeasurable as they learn how to interact with older people especially if they do not have grandparents or other elders within their family or social circle Understanding age differences, respect, and considerations to others is paramount in this Comlink programme . The highly trained Educators involved in this programme, lead a team that focuses on these attributes The senior friends also play a big part in this Comlink Paper Planes Programme with their own physical and mental health retraining or development.This can be life changing in some instances Mobility, or lack of it in the older person can result in the ageing process accelerating until the person becomes wheelchair bound or even worse bedridden Interacting with the children in activities strengthen muscles and tendons etc along with enjoyment one gets from close contact with the children .Therefore delaying the onset of unwelcome health issues This Comlink Intergenerational programme is highly recommended by all who participate in it I wholly endorse the Comlink Paper Planes Programme to you
Selecting Comlink on the Sunshine Coast as my preferred aged care partner has been an enriching life progressing decision engendering a heady mix of joy and relief to me and my family. After a few early teething issues as we've got to know each other in the Comlink partnership I am cost effectively thriving as an independent adult enjoying my chosen lifestyle of volunteering. I have not only been able to bounce back from four strokes but bounce forward into a stimulating era of interest, opportunity and relevance to my family and the community who supported me through the tough times. I'm reassured Comlink will be there for me should they reoccur. I really appreciate their staff and volunteers being here for me now sharing the exhilarating good times. Many of these have been created through their tailored touches with home help, travel and learning opportunities involved in varied outings and events all embraced by their genuine kindness and camaraderie lighting the way. On my journey with Comlink I'm acquiring a multitude of new friends now as a senior I have the time to enjoy a vibrant social life after a hectic working one. When the way forward has seemed daunting I have benefitted from Comlink's expert guidance and experience in navigating changing government aged care pathways. The caring of the staff and volunteers has led me to where I am _ enjoying a happy and rewarding life as a contributing member of the mainstream community and providing comfort to my loving family entranced that Dad is living his new dream.
“I have been a client of Comlink Australia for several years, using their transport and social support services, and more recently their domestic assistance package. I couldn't be more pleased with the experiences I've had. The variety and quality of events and social activities organised by Comlink have been excellent. These offerings have not only enhanced my daily life but have also played a crucial role in helping me stay connected with my community. The staff and volunteers are professional, friendly, and helpful. Despite recent hiccups with the phone system, the team have taken the time to listen to me and have taken my feedback into consideration. Their commitment to providing excellent service is evident. They create a warm and supportive environment, making every experience with Comlink an enjoyable one.”
Words are difficult to find to express our gratitude for the outstanding care we have received from Comlink's staff since we nominated them to manage our care packages. The fact that their staff are of such a high caliber speaks to Comlink's interest in employing the best, highly experienced, caring people.
