Educational Partnerships

Enhancing the Learning Experience

We partner with
Nationally recognised
training institutes.

Vacenti, a premier aged care facility, is taking a forward-thinking stride by establishing partnerships with esteemed educational institutions. Our main objective is to further enhance the skills and training of our dedicated staff, thereby elevating the quality of care we provide to our residents. This innovative collaboration aims at fostering a symbiotic relationship that not only imparts practical knowledge and skills to the students but also enables our staff to gain fresh insights and adopt best practices in aged care.

Marebello was very fortunate to co-host with the Mater hospital Redlands and the Redland City Council, 38 students from Gifu University, Japan.

Students and staff were treated to a tour of the Home as well as partake in a quick educational on how we train staff to care for our resident cohort. It is safe to say that both tour group and staff at Marebello had a great time and our residents loved the additional attention.
It was interesting to discuss, briefly, the differences between Aged Care in both of our countries. Vacenti Aged Care prides itself in the continually updating of skills and best practice. Building networks Nationally and Internationally to discover better practise in care is something that is in built within our company DNA. We certainly look forward to the next visit by Gifu University and look forward to a long relationship into the future.
