Geraldine Lannon celebrates one year at BaptistCare
- 07 Sep 2023

Our CEO, Geraldine Lannon, recently celebrated her one year work anniversary.
Chair of the BaptistCare Board, Tim Farren reflected on this milestone below.
“As a Board we are thrilled that in her first year Geraldine has strengthened the leadership team within BaptistCare, led important work to clarify where we can further improve our clinical practice and risk oversight in response to the increasing expectations of the community post Royal Commission, whilst also driving an even stronger opportunity within our Affordable Housing area.
It has been wonderful also to see Geraldine so actively out and about amongst staff and all those in our community. Her presence and ability to listen to feedback from staff and clients has helped to strengthen and develop communication throughout BaptistCare and beyond.
The Board also acknowledges Geraldine’s ability to build important new networks within the Baptist communities across Australia, and with state and federal governments, whilst continuing to lead the mission and vision of BaptistCare in the rapidly changing aged care and community services sector in which we all serve.
Please join us all in celebrating Geraldine’s first year, and we look forward with her to provide fullness of life to people of all ages, cultures, beliefs, and circumstances.”
