Baptcare Northaven Community prepared for floods

It is anticipated that Baptcare Northaven Community in Kerang could be isolated as floodwaters pass through the region.

Our team has planned for this contingency. We do not anticipate any change to the daily routine for our residents.

Maintaining our regular high level of care for everyone who calls Northaven home is our highest priority. Life is continuing as usual within the home, and we never cease to be amazed at the resilience and good humour of our Northaven residents and staff.

If Kerang is cut off by flooding, we anticipate that there will be additional visits from our dedicated local volunteers to keep company with residents whose families are further away.

We are maintaining close contact with the SES, Gannawarra Shire Council and other authorities, monitoring all updates. We are also sending out emails and print-outs to residents, families and staff every day to keep everyone up to date with the latest information.

We are very appreciative of the support of the community and the wider Baptcare organisation.
