Myles’ Remarkable Journey to Independence at Arcare Logan Reserve
At Arcare Logan Reserve, we believe in empowering our residents to achieve their personal goals, no matter the challenges they face. Myles, a long-term resident, is a perfect example of this philosophy in action. When he first arrived at Arcare Logan Reserve, Myles needed full assistance with all aspects of his care. He was hoisted by multiple staff members just to move from his bed to a wheelchair, and his mobility was severely limited. But with the dedication of our compassionate care team and physiotherapists, Myles has made remarkable progress in his rehabilitation.
“We’ve watched Myles transform before our eyes,” says Roxanne Haste, Residence Manager at Arcare Logan Reserve. “When he first came to us, he was bedridden. Now, to see him walking again is a true testament to his hard work and the tailored care he received here.”
With the expertise and encouragement from our physiotherapy team, Myles gradually regained strength, far exceeding expectations. His journey from being wheelchair-bound to walking again is a powerful reminder of the difference personalised care can make.
Achieving Personal Goals at Arcare
At Arcare, we are committed to supporting each resident’s individual goals, no matter how big or small. For Myles, one of those goals was to regain his ability to drive. As a passionate car enthusiast with a love for his two Mustangs, getting back on the road was a priority. “One of Myles’ goals was to get his license back so he could drive his beloved cars,” says Roxanne. Thanks to the ongoing support and rehabilitation plan at Arcare Logan Reserve, Myles not only achieved this goal but also regained the confidence and freedom that driving brings.
“Myles was incredibly committed to his rehabilitation,” explains Muhammad Ali, Physiotherapist at Arcare Logan Reserve. “Physiotherapy is an active process, and Myles was fully engaged. He put in the effort needed to achieve the results he wanted. It’s his determination that made the difference.”
A Proud Transition to Independent Living
We are incredibly proud of Myles and his journey. As he transitions back to independent living, we wish him all the best. While he may be moving on, he will always remain a cherished member of the Arcare community. His strength and determination have inspired both staff and fellow residents. Myles also encourages others facing similar challenges: “Keep going, no matter how tough it gets.” His message is a powerful reminder that with perseverance and the right support, remarkable achievements are possible.
