Magic times at Myrtle Cottage

Myrtle Cottage Community Respite’s interactive projector system, the Magic Carpet, was recently featured on Ten News First. The segment highlighted how the technology is being used by clients and staff as part of our health-focused respite model.

The Magic Carpet creates a multisensory environment by offering 500 interactive games, from soccer to quizzes or practising everyday tasks, all designed to help keep the mind and body active. It’s one of many aspects of our Respite Care model that that engages our clients physically, mentally and socially. 

Our experienced staff work with clients to help achieve their goals, build social connections, re-engage with the community and rebuild skills.
