Whiddon is an award-winning, not-for-profit organisation that has been caring for older Australians across NSW and QLD for over 70 years. We've grown from philanthropic origins to a large organisation, with over 2300 employees caring for more than 2400 residents and clients. Our services include residential aged care, community care and independent living villages. As an organisation that operates in regional, rural and remote areas, we are often at the heart of our local communities, both as an employer and as an important provider of aged care services, and we actively promote and maintain this sense of community where everyone matters. Our approach to care has always been directed by the needs and wishes of our residents and clients, supporting them to be as independent as possible. From great quality care, to enabling the older people that we care for to stay connected to the people, interests and communities that they love; this is what really makes the ageing journey a good one.
