Calvary Health Care ACT

Mission & Values

Our mission
To bring the healing ministry of Jesus to those who are sick, dying, and in need through ‘being for others':

  • in the Spirit of Mary standing by her Son on Calvary
  • through the provision of quality, responsive and compassionate health, aged and community care services based on Gospel values, and
  • in celebration of the rich heritage and story of the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary.

Our vision
To be, and to be recognised as, a leader in strengthening and developing Catholic health at regional and national levels through the creation of integrated models of care where excellence and leadership are pursued by all to best meet the needs of the people and communities we serve.

Our values
As stewards of the rich heritage of care and compassion of the Little Company of Mary, we are guided by our values:

  • Hospitality: demonstrates our response to the desire to be welcomed, to feel wanted and to belong. It is our responsibility to extend this to all who come into contact with our services by promoting connectedness and listening and responding openly.
  • Healing: demonstrates our desire to respond to the whole person by caring for their spiritual, psychological and physical well being. It is our responsibility to value and consider the whole person and to promote healing through reconnecting, reconciling and building relationships.
  • Stewardship: recognises that as individuals and as a community all we have has been given to us as a gift. It is our responsibility to manage these precious resources effectively for the future. We are responsible for: striving for excellence, developing personal talents, material possessions, our environment, and handing on the mission of the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary.
  • Respect: recognises the value and dignity of every person who is associated with our services. It is our responsibility to care for all with whom we come into contact with justice and compassion no matter what the circumstances, and we are prepared to stand up for what we believe and challenge behaviour which is contrary to our values.
