Hats off to local Wandin resident Moira Burgi who recently turned 100!
Moira has lived in the same house her entire life, which her parents built after immigrating to Australia in 1868.
Moria receives Home Care Package support from EACH, which she has said allows her to remain living independently in her own home. Support workers attend to Moira during the week as organised by her EACH Case Manager Cathy and Moira expressed that Cassie, one of her support workers, is “more than my carer, she’s a wonderful person and we have a friendship”.
As part of Moria’s 100th Birthday Commemoration she recently had a party with 130 people celebrating and received a letter of congratulations from the Queen, the Governor-General, the Premier and a written blessing from the Pope.
EACH is proud to continue providing Moira with the support she needs to live independently.
EACH Home Care package is a Commonwealth Government funded package. Home Care Packages are an individually planned and coordinated suite of support and services designed to assist older people who need support to remain living independently.
