At 87 years old, Mary Doris Frendo has found a new sense of life at Roseville, where she has resided for the past two years and four months. Her experience at this facility has been nothing short of wonderful, bringing her joy and a renewed sense of community.
Mary’s journey to Roseville began after a fulfilling and active life. She worked as a nanny and later as a nurse in physiotherapy, dedicating her time to caring for others. This nurturing spirit extended to her family; she is the proud mother of four children, grandmother to eleven, and great-grandmother to five. Her life took a different turn when she lost her husband eight years ago. This loss marked a turning point, as Mary realized she could no longer live alone, despite her family’s love and frequent visits. She needed the support and companionship that only a community like Roseville could provide.
From the moment Mary moved to Roseville, she immersed herself in the vibrant community life. Known for her active lifestyle, she quickly started participating in the events and initiatives organised by the facility that are tailored to meet the residents’ needs and interests. Mary embraces each opportunity with enthusiasm as excursions allow her to explore new places, meet new people, and maintain an active and engaged lifestyle.
Knowing she is in a supportive environment where her needs are met around the clock has given her family peace of mind. The staff at Roseville provide excellent care, ensuring that Mary and all residents receive the attention and assistance they require at any time of day.
Reflecting on her experience, Mary often expresses her gratitude for the warm and caring environment at Roseville. “It’s truly a home away from home,” she says. She encourages anyone considering an elderly care facility to visit one of CareMalta’s facilities. “You will instantly change your mind and decide to go for it,” she assures. Mary’s positive experience stands as a testament to the excellent care and vibrant community life at Roseville, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a supportive and engaging environment in their later years.
