RM Begg Aged Care Kyneton CEO Meredith Grant will step down from her role next month. Board chair Phillip Irvine said Ms Grant’s contribution to the home since she joined in 2007 had been significant, and she had been especially pivotal in ensuring services and care of the highest standard during that time. “Meredith’s resignation is a great loss to the organisation, but the board respects and supports her decision to devote more time to her own family after having given so much to RM Begg,” Mr Irvine said. “The Board is sure that the extended RM Begg community will join in thanking Meredith very much for her care and dedication, and in wishing her the very best for the future.” Ms Grant has led the organisation through difficult times, including the public disclosure last year of RM Begg’s serious financial challenges.
