Thanks to The Cove for the high standard of care that I see when I visit my father each week. Under very testing circumstances over the past few years, Brightwater has responded to the challenges in a positive and sensitive way. At a time where there has been so much focus on the deficiencies of aged care, The Cove's management and staff have been professional and proactive. It's so easy to blame the government, providers, and other institutions, but we all have a role to play as a community, a nation, and as taxpayers. I did a brief stint as a carer when I was a student, so I do speak from some experience. I just want to register my appreciation for the huge efforts made by Brightwater generally, and The Cove more specifically. We value the service and care you provide our loved ones.
