DAVID MAHER, MANAGING DIRECTOR 3 RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE THERAPIST, VIKTORIA MAKSYMOVA WITH RESIDENTIAL MANAGER OF GERTRUDE ABBOTT AND THE SISTER ANNE COURT, RUTH WERNICK Art Therapist Viktoria Maksymova has been running ABCT sessions at Gertrude Abbott since 2013. “Art improves an older person’s wellbeing, slowing down cognitive decline,” says Viktoria. “When you create an artwork you simultaneously engage almost all parts of your brain. It’s like an orchestra where memories, emotions, motor and visual processes all work together to create something wonderful, something new to keep your mind stronger for longer. The ABCT sessions are enjoyable for residents while also contributing to a healthy brain and cognitive functioning.

They all feel like artists.” ABOUT ART BASED COGNITIVE THERAPY Art Based Cognitive Therapy (ABCT) is a multi-sensory intervention for seniors and individuals with neurodegenerative diseases that enhances wellbeing and cognitive functioning and delays cognitive decline. The ABCT program, informed by current scientific research, has been designed by Viktoria Maksymova over many years of experience working with ageing and vulnerable populations. The program is especially suitable as a group activity for seniors and residents of aged care homes. 4 RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE Residents share some of their favourite pieces of literature and Merryl arranges books to share. Special requests not available on the day are sourced on the internet and made available for the following week. Residents read a poem of their own choice to the group. Others prefer just to listen and let others read. RESIDENTS, AUDREY (LEFT) AND BARBARA ENJOYING A POETRY AND PORT SESSION “Aussie favourites such as Banjo Patterson and Henry Lawson are always popular,” says Merryl. “The sessions increase brain activity, THE WORD GETS elevate the mood of the residents and boost self-esteem.

In 1987 a female adult skeleton with a small child was found near Dubbo, NSW, during the course of landscape gardening.

    This list has been prepared by the RAI to show which Local Government Areas (LGAs) are in each of the Internet Vacancy Index (IVI) Regions. The regions do not always map well across LGAs as they have been designed under a different geography. So in preparing the list we have looked at a simple ‘best fit’ as to which Region an LGA best fits into. Vacancies in LGAs which overlap different IVI Regions will have some of the characteristics of both IVI Regions.

The Dhurga were fisherfolk and through the ages they would gather to assess the seas and the weather before setting off. The oj b of the lookout who remained there was to signal those on the water and on the beach below about the location and direction of sea mammals and shoals of fish. Such lookout posts exist also at Hill 60 at Port Kembla and up and down the South Coast, and it is from them that people observed the passage of James Cook’s ship in 1770. One of them told her granddaughter Coomee, who died at Ulladulla in 1914, all about “the first time the white birds came by”. During the vessel’s slow northward movement along the South Coast over eight days, heavy surf at Bulli Beach prevented a provisioning party from getting ashore on 28 April.
