Meet our Manager
Lakshmi Rajendran
My passion for aged care has been a defining part of my career. I am grateful for the opportunity to join Radius Care, where my journey began as a Health Care Assistant. After completing my New Zealand nursing registration, I progressed into a Registered Nurse role, followed by Acting Clinical Nurse Manager and later Acting Care Home Manager. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of both the clinical and operational aspects of aged care, while strengthening my commitment to delivering safe, high-quality care.
What I love most about aged care is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with residents and their families, and to support older people with dignity, compassion, and respect. I am inspired by the difference we can make in residents’ everyday lives, and I take pride in supporting and mentoring staff to grow in confidence and capability. Working in aged care allows me to combine clinical excellence with leadership, teamwork, and genuine human connection.
On a personal level, I value family, balance, and continuous learning. I enjoy staying organised, supporting others to succeed, and finding practical solutions to challenges. A fun fact about me is that I truly enjoy mentoring staff and seeing them progress in their careers, as it is one of the most rewarding parts of my role.
I am grateful for my journey so far and continue to feel motivated and fulfilled working in the aged care sector, where compassion, leadership, and teamwork truly make a difference.
