Our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) and the ongoing work of Silverchain, questions how we can make reconciliation part of everything we do in order to create a just, equitable and reconciled nation.
Our vision for reconciliation is for a fair and just health care system embedded in social justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities in our pursuit of health equality and a united Australia.
Our vision aligns with Silverchain’s Strategy Towards 2030 and is connected to our aspiration to create a better home care system for all Australians. Guided by our world class research, supported with the latest technology, and delivered with the human touch of someone who cares, we are the national leaders of complete care at home and supporting our clients’ health and wellbeing.
We believe that we can advance reconciliation within Australia if we as an organisation:
- Empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander self-determination within the health care system and care decision making.
- Strengthen our relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
- Recognise the unique contribution Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people make to our society and the importance of First Nations Peoples’ cultures.
- Ensure impact and inclusion by improving the delivery of services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and equal opportunities within our organisation.
We set high expectations for ourselves when it comes to fostering a world class inclusive culture. Our Innovate RAP is reinforced with guidance from First Nations employees, ensuring we stay on track for the journey ahead. The Seed Pod was named in homage to Micky Barlow's artwork, which was commissioned in 2019. Silverchain is proud to use this artwork as a symbol of our commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and our shared journey of reconciliation.
