Our Code of Conduct
The Mission of Apto Group is to provide best practice support services for consumers with complex needs, and their carers, in the aged, disability and health care sectors. We work with a view to offering coordinated care and including our consumers / carers and their direct care personnel in care planning and reviews. Staff will endeavour to maximise the consumer’s independence as far as possible.
Working with consumers brings with it duties to consumers, their carers and also to the community. It may also involve a number of people working cooperatively from other agencies and from within Apto Group. Therefore all staff must recognise the significance to consumers of other programs and corporate services within Apto Group and within external agencies. When determining staff behaviour, professional and industry codes of conduct will be taken into consideration.
