About

Family Carers and Support Workers provide important practical assistance that requires care, compassion and consideration of others before self.  And….at times the role can feel challenging, invisible and thankless.

The core business of Heart Choice Enterprises is to support carers and support workers, and thus to enhance the quality of care and support available for people living with disability or chronic health conditions.

• The VISION of Heart Choice Enterprises is Effective care and support that nurtures Quality of Life for all involved.
• The MISSION of Heart Choice Enterprises is to cultivate Praxis, Wellbeing and Resilience with the people who perform carer roles and support roles.
• The ACTION of Heart Choice Enterprises is to Consult, Educate and Co-create.

The Heart Choice Enterprises Approach 

Heart Choice Enterprises brings an informed yet practical approach to supporting Praxis for purpose, Wellbeing and Resilience in the care and support arena.

So what do these concepts mean?

Human Wellbeing is essentially about flourishing – where the quest for meaning and purpose is central., and where doing, being and becoming are key. Resilience is about being able to “bounce back” from short term stress, and also about being adaptable to minimise long term stress.  And Praxis involves putting purpose and ideas into action that activate and support universal wellbeing.
