At Melba, our commitment is clear: every person has the right to feel welcome, respected and safe. As a human rights–based organisation, we are building a culturally safe environment where racism and discrimination have no place.
The Melba Way is centred on delivering high quality, person-led support for people with disability. Putting people first means our support is tailored to each person’s lifestyle and preferences. We know that when Melba employees feel valued and respected, they can provide the very best support.
Join us as we continue to build an inclusive, supportive and welcoming environment for everyone.
Our self advocates group ARROW (Advocacy, Rights, Representation, Outcomes, Worth) is a channel for people to have a direct voice about how Melba is run and how our services are delivered. ARROW is a supported environment for people to advocate for themselves and others and offer valuable feedback.
Inclusive governance is important to Melba, the voices of the people we support must be the loudest and must always be heard. ARROW plays a critical role in all things we do because people must be the decision makers in their own lives.
ARROW ensures the voices of people we support are heard, and their experiences help shape the future of Melba. When we make decisions, we want everyone to have a seat at the table, to share their insights and be involved in decisions that are important to them.
As a provider of supports and services to children, Melba is committed to creating and maintaining a child safe organisation. This includes ensuring that every child is supported to achieve their potential, is protected from abuse and neglect, and that every child feels respected, safe, empowered and are taken seriously if they raise concerns in relation to their safety and wellbeing.
Our Practice, Quality and Safeguards team ensures people are well supported to set and achieve the goals they want. Our expert Quality Practice Coaches and Personal Outcome Measures Planners support The Melba Way across the organisation. And our Complex Health specialists provide unique nursing expertise.
