Advocacy at the heart of my role: Carinity Retirement Villages Manager, Maddison Morgan

The Not For Profit Christian provider of retirement living, home care, aged care and community services is celebrating its staff on International Women’s Day on 8 March.

DCM Institute participant Maddison Morgan, who oversees the running of all Carinity retirement villages across Queensland, spoke about evolving.

“I continuously look for ways to improve processes and enhance the experience for both residents and staff. Whether it is implementing new strategies for efficiency, fostering a culture of continuous learning, or encouraging collaborative problem-solving, my goal is to drive positive change. Innovation is not always about big, sweeping changes. It is often about small, meaningful improvements that create lasting impact, with a particular focus on how I make my team, and our residents feel,” Maddison said.

“The ability to make a difference in people’s lives is my greatest motivation. Seeing how my work positively affects individuals, whether through improving our product and offering, or fostering a stronger sense of community, fuels my passion to keep going. I also find inspiration in the people around me, our staff and residents, who remind me daily of the importance of compassion, leadership, and progress.”

She also said how proud she was of her involvement in the development of additional units at Carinity Elim Estate in Raceview, a suburb of Ipswich.

“This project will see much needed retirement village units come on the market in the Ipswich area. It will provide a fulfilling retirement for seniors in the area in line with Carinity’s values of creating communities where people feel safe, supported, and connected.”
