00:13staff, in our care staff and they are so eager and now with Heather and her team up here
00:19who are supercharged to actually get this program up and running.
00:23I have to say as a community leader I'm so excited that you guys are here, going to be
00:28supporting our community and the way you're going to be supporting us and offering those
00:31services, I just think it's fantastic.
00:37We have been actually doing out of hospital care for over 17 years, so in 2007 we started
00:44doing these services and these programs in Forbes and Parks.
00:51I would like to say today though and announce today that we are going to launch additional
00:57services up here into the aged care and government funded programs.
01:01So it could be someone who wants to palliate at home, so in the end stages of life.
01:05It could be someone who needs a simple dressing or medication, but it's also those other things
01:10around activities of daily living, bathing, showering, toileting, all of those activities
01:14that don't need to be done in a hospital can be done at home.
