I want to sincerely thank everyone for their patience and perseverance whilst we have been working through these necessary changes.
The implementation of our components of the new ‘Toward Home Alliance’ is progressing very well. It’s great that staff appointments are now almost finalised and that most of our current staff who were seeking a role have found one within Baptist Care SA.
I am very pleased to advise that Amy Kane has now joined us as the Senior Manager for the new ‘Pathways to Home’ Service portfolio which includes all the services that Baptist Care SA will be providing under the new ‘Toward Home Alliance‘. Amy comes to us from Baptcare Vic/Tas where she spent the last three years working in the disability sector leading the rollout of the NDIS in SA.
We have also attracted some other great new staff who will be joining us over the next few weeks and I trust that you will all warmly welcome them as they come on board.
Baptist Care SA is also very pleased to be establishing an innovative new service called ‘Living Connected – Living Well’ across the Adelaide metropolitan area. I extend sincere thanks to Phil Bunyon and his team for the work they are doing to establish this new much needed new support service that addresses the needs of people who are not eligible for NDIS Services, but who require support to live well in the community.
I also want to extend thanks to our:
Thanks for your continuing efforts to make great things happen everyone!
