How we work with you
What you can expect from us
Your choice
You decide what support looks like, and you can change your mind as your needs change.
Privacy
Your health information is handled carefully and only shared with your consent — see our Privacy Policy for detail.
Dignity
You're treated as the person directing your own care, not as a task on a roster.
Communication
We keep you, and anyone you want involved, informed about your care.
Feedback
We want to hear what's working and what isn't — feedback helps us do this properly.
Complaints
If something's not right, you can raise it without it affecting your care. See Complaints & Feedback.
Changing services
If your needs change, or you'd like to change how support is delivered, just let us know.
