Chat to us
Sisters Dorothy and Jean had a heartwarming reunion recently thanks to the help of our staff who did everything they could get them back together.

In an inspiring tale of determination and dedication, two long-lost sisters have been joyously reunited after years of separation. Dorothy and her sister Jean, once inseparable, had drifted apart due to various circumstances and relocations. With years passing without contact, it became Dorothy's heartfelt wish to reconnect with her sister.

Enter Tanya, a dedicated support worker, who took it upon herself to make Dorothy's dream a reality. Embarking on a challenging journey, Tanya devoted her free time to locating Jean, delving into family history and tracing their roots. Her tireless efforts paid off when, with the assistance of a compassionate social worker, they finally obtained Jean's contact details.

The moment Tanya reached out to Jean was filled with overwhelming joy. Jean was thrilled at the prospect of reuniting with her sister, and plans were quickly made for an in-person meeting. Today, that long-awaited reunion became a reality!

Traveling approximately an hour from Newark to Jean's home, Dorothy was warmly welcomed by her sister. The emotional reunion was a poignant moment, with tears, laughter, and heartfelt embraces all around. The joy didn’t stop there; Dorothy was also greeted by other family members, including her niece, nephews, and Jean's adorable little pooch, Leo!

The sisters spent the day reminiscing, sharing cherished memories, and catching up on lost time. It was a privilege to witness their bond rekindle, as they filled the room with stories and laughter.

This incredible reunion underscores the true essence of working in the care sector. It's about more than providing personal care—it's about going above and beyond to ensure the happiness and well-being of those we serve. Tanya's unwavering commitment has made a lasting impact on Dorothy and Jean's lives, a moment neither they nor the team will ever forget.

As they plan future visits, this reunion marks the beginning of a new chapter for Dorothy and Jean. A wise man once said, "Find a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." Tanya's extraordinary effort is a testament to this belief, demonstrating the profound difference one dedicated person can make.

Thank you, Tanya, for making this heartwarming reunion possible!
