There’s no place like your home

What we learned from the Wizard of Oz

Here at Acquaint, we appreciate classic cinema. Especially when we would consider ourselves a classic, as well.

Perhaps that’s why we see so much of ourselves in the film greats. And our clients, as well.

The most Acquaint film of all? Wizard of Oz. For more reasons than one might think.

Like the Lion, we have courage

Frankly, the Lion said it best: ‘True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid.’ And being completely yourself when doing so.

Here at Acquaint, our candid communication cannot exist without courage.

We would never let the fear of awkwardness stop us from speaking with honesty. But also with tact, mind you. We do possess a modicum of decorum after all.

Like the Scarecrow, we have brains

The Scarecrow once said, ‘It is such an uncomfortable feeling to know one is a fool.’ And while we most certainly cannot relate to that sentiment, we can relate to the feeling of valuing knowledge.

It’s how we’re able to build trust with our clients and their loved ones. Because they know we know what we’re doing – so we won’t let them down.

Like Toto, we are playful

In the wise words of L. Frank Baum, ‘It was Toto that made Dorothy laugh, and saved her from growing as grey as her surroundings.’ A true friend through and through.

In the wrong company, ageing can be a glum affair indeed. But with Acquaint’s sense of play and fun, our clients can take in their golden years with a smile – and a companion.

Like the Tin Man, we have heart

As we must all agree, having both brains and hearts, one ‘should much rather have a heart.’ At least, that’s what the Tin Man said.

And although we are in no shortage of smarts here at Acquaint, the kindness and care we have in our hearts are undoubtedly our strongest qualities.

In fact, they’re the reason we’re able to deliver the highest standards of premium, passionate and personal home care possible.

Like Dorothy, you know there’s no place like home

It’s not just us with much in common with the 1900 book and 1939 film – it’s you as well.

Because, just like Dorothy, you’re well aware that there’s no place like home. So why would you want to leave it to go to an aged care facility?

But with Acquaint, there will be no need for magically enchanted shoes to get you where you want to be. Because our staff will ensure you’re already there.

Our passionate team is here to help you live life your way. So if you’re in need of good company – whether it be for visiting a witchy friend or a walk down a yellow brick road – call us on 03 9267 9090.
