One of the region’s leading providers of boutique aged care services, NoosaCare Carramar is marking its 40th birthday with a free open day for the whole community on Friday 30 May from 10.30am until 3.30pm.
Chief executive officer Grant Simpson said the milestone was an important achievement for NoosaCare which emerged from humble beginnings in 1974 when a group of community members recognised the need for aged care in the local community.
“We could not be more proud of the journey which NoosaCare has undertaken over the past four decades. We’ve built an incredible community based facility and provided important boutique aged care services within the local community while also creating significant employment opportunities.
“Our open day is a great way for us all to come together and celebrate this milestone with a range of fun activities including live music, a sausage sizzle, face painting, carnival games and an icecream stand.
“We will also be hosting small group tours around Carramar gardens, Harry’s Restaurant and the community centre. It’s a great way for people to come and see how our facility has evolved over the years and if you are looking to work in aged care, it’s an opportunity to meet our team and see what we have to offer.
“Entry is free and our NoosaCare team and our residents look forward to welcoming everyone on 30 May,” Grant said.
