The Selwyn Way

The Selwyn Foundation has a set of values we believe in and try to live by. We seek to conduct our business, employ and train our staff, and provide service and care on the basis of these principles.

We believe that providing services to older people is our Christian mission, and that Christian faith and love must be reflected in the quality of the care and hospitality services we provide.

We firmly believe that older people have needs for enjoyment, social experiences, spiritual and emotional support, and health and well-being.

In our villages, the people who work for us endeavour to meet these needs through:

• Community
• Companionship
• Respect
• Unconditional love and service
• Safety
• Security
• Affordability
• Empowerment
• Valuing unique contributions.
   

We say there are four platforms underpinning The Selwyn Way:

1. Faith:  a Christian faith and belief in Jesus and His teachings, and in unconditional love  
    
2. Independence:  recognising and supporting residents’ right to independence 
    
3. Care:  delivering services with respect and dignity  
    
4. Wellness:  helping people live to their fullest throughout their lives.
