Bethanie’s BTTNH Older Adult volunteers awarded

The older adult participants who volunteer as part of the Beyond the Teaching Nursing Home project were short listed following nomination for the WA Bethanie Medallion awards in the Volunteer Medallion – Organisation category. This award recognises any organisation in WA that has shown outstanding dedication towards others in the community, inspiring others to contribute to, and participate in the Aged Care sector.

The older adult volunteers won the Bethanie Volunteer Medallion – Organisation and also won the overall Bethanie Medallion!

This is a great acknowledgement of the commitment that the residents at Bethanie Joondanna have shown to nursing, medical, social work and podiatry students over the past two and a half years.

Congratulations to the Bethanie volunteers, and to Prof Rosemary Saunders! The e-Ageing team are very proud of our association with the winning BTTNH project
