RangeCare is a not-for-profit organisation providing in-home community care services to aged and disabled residents living in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland region and surrounding areas. Operating since 1986, RangeCare is a community based business that thrives on being part of the broader community. We exist to help our clients live independent and purposeful lives at home, and we do this by demonstrating kindness, empathy, and compassion. With everything we do our aim is to build strong relationships with our clients and their families. From small beginnings in 1986, RangeCare has expanded its services to include nursing care, domestic assistance, social support, meals on wheels, minor home and garden maintenance, and day and overnight respite to the local elderly and physically disadvantaged population. We currently have over 2000 CHSP and Home Care Package clients, along with around 100 disabled clients.
RangeCare’s strong reputation for delivering quality in-home, respite and social support services is because of its dedicated team of care support workers, nurses, drivers and domestic assistants who are kind, compassionate, and respectful. They offer dignified and empowering care to each of their clients.
RangeCare staff live and breathe our values. Our values include:
- TRUSTED: We are responsive and our clients have confidence in our systems and processes. We are open and honest about mistakes and errors so problems can be addressed and solutions can be found. We are sincere in all we do.
- RELIABLE: We are aware of our clients’ and colleagues’ needs and we react appropriately in a timely manner. We are open to feedback and work collaboratively to address any issues that are raised. We listen.
- COMMUNITY FIRST: We are aware of our responsibility to the community. We regularly work with members of the community and local businesses to ensure our services meet their needs and that the community have access to safe care.
- RESILIENT: We adapt to change. We have positive attitudes about our work and are optimistic about the future. We always look for new and better ways of working so that we can be more productive and more efficient.
- SUPPORTIVE: We encourage our work colleagues and clients. We show kindness and empathy for the challenges and struggles they face. We understand that people thrive in an environment where they feel heard.
These values have been built upon a foundation of strong leadership and a commitment to building strong relationships with our clients and their loved ones.
