          Thank you for the support I’ve received in my first
          month as Chief Executive Officer at Cranbrook Care.        Karuna Ranabhat
          I started nursing as a carer 31 years ago and then         For being genuine and very caring. Karuna
          trained to be a Registered Nurse which I have been         continually shows respect to our residents
          now for 26 years, working in various roles including       and her peers and is an inspiring role model.
          Care Manager, Director of Care, Quality & Education
          and Operations. Over the last four years I have led        Pattarawadee Yamdongplong
          the clinical teams at Cranbrook Care including the         Pat encompasses all of Cranbrook Care's
          biggest challenge we have ever faced, the safety and
                                                                     values but particularly the values of being
          protection of our residents against COVID‐19.
                                                                     caring, respectful, passionate and genuine.

          I am very passionate about the care and service
          delivered to our residents. At Cranbrook Care we
          strive for exceptional wellbeing for our residents,
          physical and emotional security, and excellence in
          both our built environment and our service. I also
          believe that we need to strive to provide a great
          workplace for all our staff, where they feel
          supported and empowered through training and
          education.


          Strengthening corporate governance and clinical
          leadership are just two of the many reforms
          required in the transformation of the Aged Care
          sector post the Royal Commission into Aged Care.
          Both are crucial in ensuring quality care, service and
          support to our residents, our families, and our
          valued staff in the future. I look forward to working
          with everyone to continue to achieve this.
