Caregivers graduate

Housing Assistance and Relief Trust (HART) CEO Paserio Furivai says that it is through caring for others that people get to realise the delicateness of life and the need to appreciate and take care of it.

However, Mr Furivai told the Mauri Professional Caregiving Institute Inaugural graduation ceremony that to provide the best care for others required a good understanding of the physical and psychological nature of the human person, the appropriate environment for them and the skills required to address those needs.

“I believe that a trained caregiver will also be more accommodating, more patient and more appreciative of life,” Mr Furivai said.

“These things require training.”

Mr Furivai said the graduating class of Mauri Institute comprised 37 women and four men.

“This is not only interesting but very encouraging, seeing women excel in higher education and learning.

“You have proven that if you are determined enough and set your mind to it, you can achieve whatever it is you want.”
