Carer Mugs

'Congratulations! You've gone from a care-free baby-boomer, to a care-needy elderly person in record time!'

Mrs Smith and her daughter - now and 40 years later...

Carer's Lament

'Sorry dear, I can't take you to the toilet until you've sold your house.'

"Nurse, when I asked you to make the patient more comfortable I just meant plump up his pillows!"

"Yes mum, metaphorically speaking, you're still in the driving seat."

'We still have some kinks to work out with the new pet therapy program.'

"Do you remember when we had to do was help people?"

'Mrs Gridlington doesn't like being referred to as 'duck' or 'dearie'...so I just call her 'the old trout'!'

Father nursing his sick child

'Pre-washed and pre-cooked I'm okay with but lovingly chewed by devoted carers.....'

"I think the most rewarding part of caring for elderly parents is when they call you because they don't want to bother the 9-1-1 people."

Social Distancing

"And this is the Ward where you'll be working."

Covid 19 Christmas Medical Team

"I needed a lift so I'm giving myself a clap."

"Er! Actually I was thinking of starting with the left handed."

"Would it be asking too much for you all to creak together?"

"Welcome to your new home, Dad."

"Uh oh...I was supposed to rub this on you back..."

'Get this, Dr. Melroy just asked my opinion.'

'And How are we today Mr. Figgs?'

"He's so cute! How old is he?"

Blind but fun: 'I bet he's hiding behind the tree again...'

'I'm just going to soak my feet.'

I'm usually the fourth Nurse Musketeer, but I slipped on a stain.'

Volunteer Bureau: 'I want to help people who are older than myself...'

I see him as an outpatient, rather than a husband.

'Well, dad, it's either this or no bath.'

Thank you healthcare heroes

Care for the elderly.

'Ever hear of the 'Lounge'?'

'It's not easy being fabulous and caretaking.'

'I know you want to recover quickly, but the stopwatch won't help.'
