We support participants to develop and maintain your independence, problem solving, social and self-care skills, as appropriate to your age, developmental stage, cultural background, or other needs and goals.
Some of the ways we do this include:
- delivering services in a way that respects your personal, gender, sexual, cultural, religious, or spiritual identity.
- employing and developing a diverse and culturally competent workforce.
- working collaboratively with disability-specific, mainstream, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse services to support holistic service delivery.
- using a strengths-based approach to identify individual participant needs and life goals, particularly in relation to recognising the importance of family, extended family, kinship,
- cultural, spiritual, language and community ties.
Interpreting and Translation
We are aware that the delivery of high-quality and safe services relies on effective communication. Where required, interpreters and translators will be made available at no cost to support your interactions with us.
Advocacy
Austcare fully supports your right to have an independent advocate support you in your interactions with us. If you’d like help finding an independent advocate, speak to one of our staff. We are happy to help!
