"As you know it is a very difficult time and I have been amazed to observe the tenderness, compassion and love the care givers have for each resident. They are exceptional!" - Lady Wigram Hospital Palliative Family Member - May 2021

"On behalf of the family we would like to take this opportunity to express our heart felt feelings at the loving care given to mum during her time in the hospital, particularly the staff who were on duty just before and after her passing. These women showed so much devotion, kindness, understanding and loving care, during this final stage." - Lady Wigram Hospital Palliative Family Member - September 2024

"Working at Lady Wigram has been a positive experience, which has provided me with opportunities to improve my skill set, increase my knowledge and follow best practices. Summer is my favorite time of year the village comes alive with the amazing grounds. Everywhere you look u can appreciate the families in the cafe the staff v residents bowls, croquet laughter the village is alive & such a happy place to be. The staff work really hard paying special attention to detail for each and every individual resident that works through the door. I enjoy our sendoff where staff gather in a guard of honor to farewell those we have cared for. It makes me proud to be a part of this team, it truly offers a homely feel." - Lady Wigram Hospital Staff Member - October 2024
