Cranbourne-based NDIS provider Kare ONE has been recognised with a sector award.
The organisation won the ‘The Most Outstanding Regional Personal Care Provider’ at the recent Enablement Awards 2024.
The awards celebrate and reward excellence, innovation and exemplary achievements in the disability care sector.
They also have a focus on considering equally all-sized operators.
Kare ONE managing director Jodie King said the award was a recognition of the hard work of the agency’s staff.
“When someone sees a person with a disability, for example in a wheelchair, few people wonder ‘how did that person get in that chair?” Jodie said.
“Well, that’s what we do. Personal care is what assists a person to get out of bed, through the shower and beautifully dressed to go out and present themselves to the world, regardless of their mobility.”
Kare ONE was founded in 2005 to bring a fresh approach to in-home services in which clients and carers develop personal relationships.
The organisation, now in partnership with migrant and refugee settlement agency AMES Australia, prides itself on delivering quality care through careful carer placement, focusing on teamwork and recognition of the individual needs of clients.
