Policy and Programme Development

The need to build the competency of the ageing sector is urgent. Agencies that will be at the forefront are those who will make the necessary investment in educating its entire workforce from the specialist to the front liners  -  the care attendants, drivers, meals deliverers and medical escorts among others. Effective services must be person-centred with services that are  personalised, tightly integrated and empowering while remaining cost effective. We can work with you on best practice principles as well as on the nuts and bolts of service improvements to ensure prideful service quality.

Policy and Programme Development

Research

Efficient and effective service delivery is always anchored in evidence-based work. Policy and service development must be strategic with  focus on achieving quality and cost-effective outcomes. Client satisfaction surveys are no longer adequate measure of impact. Programme evaluation must become a practise culture with  providers conducting these evaluations themselves. We can work with you to embed an outcome framework within your programmes to allow you to continually track your impact!
