Goodwin has a few projects
lined up for its facilities that
will improve the services the
organisation can provide, and
serve an increasingly complex
spectrum of customers,
from “young active” retirees
to the frail and palliative.
The Wellness Centre, which
Levy considers a value add,
provides services above and
beyond what is expected
of aged care facilities in
Australia.

“As is understood by its
name, the facility focuses
on wellness rather than
illness or aging. The
integrated model of care
has a staff including a nurse
practitioner and a general
practitioner, which is not
common of wellness centres.

“We offer flexibility
arrangements to our
employees. Working mums
can bring their kids in to
have breakfast and then
take them to school and
come back to work. For
our employees, it’s about
making sure their home life
is taken care of so they can
be productive and enjoy the
job they do here,” shared Levy.

A great company culture
across all locations, a
competitive hourly rate, as
well as a concerted effort
to promote workers from
within have made Goodwin
an employer of choice in the
region, a title the leaders don’t
take lightly.

“Our employees are just as
important as our customers.
Our open-door policy allows
us to see the job from their
perspective, meaning we can
have a renewed appreciation
