Care with Purpose – the Catholic Homes difference

Catholic Homes brings a distinct approach to aged care and living well that is making a positive impact on older people’s lives.

Called Care with Purpose, our care model focuses on the individual: our qualified, experienced staff help our residents and clients reach their goals by letting them take reasonable risks and make the choices and decisions about the things that matter to them.

“We want people to live well at home, so our emphasis is on building or restoring people’s strengths with a focus on the right kind of support services that maximise independence and quality of life,” Chief Executive Darren Cutri said.

Care with Purpose also advances the organisation’s values of joy, love and hospitality, where every life is protected as a sacred gift and every human being is created as a unity of body, mind and spirit.

Meeting your goals

“We can achieve this through a deeper understanding of our residents and clients and things they love now, as well as the life they have lived, with all its highs and lows,” Mr Cutri said.

“Everyone at Catholic Homes encourages and supports people to do as much as they can for themselves; to be engaged in the activities, interests and hobbies which add value to their lives and provide purpose.”

Rewarding aged care careers

By applying Care with Purpose, Catholic Homes’ staff learn more about the people in their care, their life history, their preferences and dislikes, and what brings them joy.

As a result, all employees can make a positive impact and enjoy a rewarding career in aged care.

“Regardless of your background, circumstance or ability, Catholic Homes welcomes you and will encourage you to live a life of fulfilment and purpose,” Mr Cutri said.

Catholic Homes has been recognised for its work, winning several sector awards for care innovation and hospitality services.
