NEWCASTLE AGED CARE RESIDENTS “FLY” TO THE PHILIPPINES
While we can’t travel internationally right now, residents of a Newcastle aged care home have called on their own imaginations to fly overseas.
Elermore Vale’s Regis Aged Care crafted the full in-flight experience for a first class journey to the Philippines.
With their bags packed, passports stamped and refreshments ordered, residents were strapped in for their monthly Armchair Travel event.
Regis staff go above and beyond to make their passengers comfortable.
A few lucky flyers scored window seats, able to enjoy the clear blue skies over Australia.
Regis Aged Care says the destinations are inspired by where residents and staff are from.
“They get to share experiences together and immerse themselves in each other’s cultures,” said a Regis Spokesperson.
Over the past three months residents have virtually visited Italy, England and the Philippines, with Canada next on the bucket list.
