We place the client at the centre of all decision making and all our services are codesigned, client centred, and family focused At SensesWA, our employees and our partners are integral to what we do and are highly skilled in delivering the supports required in children’s therapies, positive behaviour support and high-quality homes and living services.
We select and recruit people who are highly skilled and trained in sensory solutions across the age span, but our SensesWA Academy focuses on continuous professional development and delivers specialist teaching, support and mentoring to further grow skill and ability in our people.
SensesWA is proud to support a diverse WA community. Our workforce, and many of the clients to whom we provide care, come from different backgrounds and parts of WA and the world. We respect, value, and embrace this diversity, and see it as a key strength of our workforce.
