The evolution of Sister Kate’s – working side by side to deliver Perth’s first Aboriginal health and aged care facility
Wendy Ashwin joined Hall & Prior’s Windsor Park aged care home, in 2014 in the role of Aboriginal Health Coordinator. She has previously worked at the Office of the Public Advocate as a guardian, advocating for clients, the Department for Communities working as a Senior Redress Officer, and the Department of Child Protection.
Her role at Windsor Park involves advocating for individual Aboriginal care recipients and helping residents maintain social and family connections. Wendy also liaises with the State Administrative Tribunal and Members, along with the Office of the Public Trustee (Administration) and The Office of the Public Advocate (Guardianship), where appropriate to a person’s circumstances.
Ageing Australia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, sea, waters and community. We pay our respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, and to Elders past and present.
