From Hospital Gown to Girl About Town

July 2, 2025

Meet Marian, or “Ma,” as her friends call her. 


After a sudden health crisis left her in hospital for seven months, Ma didn’t just need a place to live. She needed a fresh start. 


Now living at RQ Living’s Macquarie Park, she’s rediscovered independence and joy, dining out, catching up with friends, and doing it all on her terms. 


With support staff and assistive tech that makes daily life more manageable, Ma is living proof of what happens when care is provided by the right team. 


“Find people who treat you like family,” says Ma.  



RQ Living is the sister company of Utano Care, and together, we’re reimagining disability support across Perth, Sydney and beyond.
