People Make the Difference

Our vision is everything we aspire to be in the future. Our mission is our unique purpose as an organization – our reason for existing. Our values are the essential beliefs and guiding principles that we live by each day. They ground us and help us to stay focused so we can achieve our vision and mission. Our values are what guide us in making decisions – whether big or small – every day.

Person Centred Living Philosophy

At The O’Neill Centre Care Centre, we recognize and value each resident as an individual, with unique strengths and preferences, and as a citizen with rights and influence.

We place equal importance on the emotional, social, spiritual, and cultural well-being of residents, alongside their physical and mental well-being. Our environment is founded on kindness to ensure residents live with their self-defined dignity, autonomy, purpose and security. Our care and services are based on the best prevailing practice models.  

We strive to create warm, welcoming home-like environments that are reflective of the residents’ preferences and personalities. 

We encourage residents to set personal goals, to stay connected and active within, and outside, the home. As members of a collective community, we welcome external partners into the home to support the well-being of residents.

Our approach to care services:

  • is interprofessional and collaborative, engaging residents, families, and team members in decision-making that reflects resident preferences and needs; 
  • aims to maximize and maintain the independence of residents and includes the Restorative Care Philosophy;
  • values continuity of care and the Primary Care model: with meaningful and stable relationships between residents and team members across all roles.

At The O’Neill Centre we recognize and value each team member as a unique individual beyond their role and title. 

Our team members work with dignity, autonomy, respect for diversity, individual choice, purpose and security while fostering kindness and mindfulness in all interactions.

We support their personal and professional growth through ongoing education, training and resources.

We encourage team members to share their stories and talents with residents to enhance meaningful interactions and build trust, whilst maintaining therapeutic boundaries. 

We seek and value feedback from residents, team members and family to continually strengthen our commitment to ethical, person-centered living.

Our commitment to Person Centred Living aligns with our Vision, Creating communities where people of all ages achieve all they can be, our Mission, We make the difference, pioneering services for individuals in a caring community, our Values of PEOPLE and finally our mantra of Making Every Moment Matter™.
