Faces of Glenray: Meet Kristina
Get to know the people behind our services
If you've enquired about Glenray's services or taken a tour of one of our sites over the past few months, chances are you've already met our friendly Intake Officer, Kristina.
While she's a new face at Glenray, Kristina brings almost five years of experience across the disability and aged care sectors, having worked as both a Disability Support Worker and Assistant in Nursing since she was just 15 years old. Her passion for helping people and supporting them to live as independently as possible has been at the heart of her career from the very beginning.
When the opportunity to join Glenray as an Intake Officer came along, Kristina knew it was the perfect next step.
"It gave me the chance to use my previous experience in a different way while still continuing to support participants and their families."
Now, Kristina is often one of the first people participants and their families meet as they begin their journey with Glenray, helping make the intake process as welcoming and stress-free as possible.
"What I enjoy most about my role is being able to support participants and families from the very beginning of their journey with Glenray. I love helping make the intake process as smooth and welcoming as possible, and knowing I've played a small part in connecting people with the support they need."
