When someone you love is in hospital, being able to stay close can make a difficult time that little bit easier. 💙
For Jackie, Calvary Rotary Cottage became a home away from home while Jesse received treatment in Canberra.
Just a two-minute walk from Calvary Bruce Private Hospital, the Cottage gave Jackie somewhere comfortable to rest, wash clothes and collect anything Jesse needed – while knowing she could be back by his side within minutes.
“It made everything so much easier and far less stressful, especially during such an emotional and worrying time,” Jackie said.
For 30 years, Calvary Rotary Cottage has supported patients, families and carers who need somewhere to stay close to hospital care in Canberra.
