Meet Maria – Lifestyle Assistant at Regis Blackburn

Meet Maria Kuzmicheva, our Lifestyle Assistant at Regis Blackburn. Maria has been with Regis since 2010, starting as a Personal Care Assistant and then working in a Resident Companion role before moving into her current position. She was attracted to working within the aged care sector because she enjoys “helping people and engaging with the deaf community.”

Maria works closely with the deaf community in her role due to there being a deaf wing at Regis Blackburn. She is also deaf and able to communicate through Auslan to our deaf residents. A typical day for Maria focuses on “assisting residents in their day-to-day tasks and ensuring their personal wellbeing.” She loves her role because she gets to “interact with a range of different people and learn more about them.” Maria particularly loves working with the elder community because she has developed amazing connections with the residents, and since she does not have many family members in Australia, she feels she has “been able to form a family with the residents.”

Protecting our community

At Regis Blackburn, our highest priority is the health and safety of our residents, employees, and visitors. We pride ourselves on the well-established infection prevention and control measures that we have in place, which create a safe and secure environment for all. In response to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has seen disruptions to supply chains and stock procurement, we have established dedicated hubs in Melbourne to store our vital Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

By equipping ourselves with PPE, we can continue to deliver the highest level of care to our residents and clients, even during these difficult times.
