Beneath the brick and mortar of The Cunningham lies a legacy of care.
Owned and operated by Ashfield Baptist Homes, The Cunningham has a history of compassion and support that’s second to none.
Who are Ashfield Baptist Homes?
Ashfield Baptist Homes has been a beacon of compassionate aged care for more than 70 years. As a not-for-profit organization affiliated with Ashfield Baptist Church, our mission is simple yet profound: to make a positive difference in the lives of those in need by offering quality aged care rooted in Christian principles.
Ashfield Baptist Homes’ Mission and Values
At the heart of our organization lies a mission to provide care that enriches lives. We believe in making a positive impact on those we serve by upholding Christian principles. Our mission is more than words; it’s a commitment to care that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit.
We believe in:
Inclusivity and Diversity
Ashfield Baptist Homes embraces inclusivity and diversity, welcoming individuals from all walks of life. We provide care without discrimination based on cultural background, religious beliefs, gender, or identity.
Our services are open to everyone, including Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) individuals, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (ATSI) people, individuals with disabilities, and members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex (LGBTI) community.
Independence and Faith
Ashfield Baptist Homes Limited is a not-for-profit organisation affiliated with Ashfield Baptist Church.
Our ties to the Church are significant, as are our connections within the local community, the wider aged care sector, and industry associations.
Central to our philosophy is the belief that every person, regardless of age or infirmity, is made in the image of God and possesses inherent worth. We are dedicated to preserving and enhancing the quality of life and individuality of each resident. Our commitment to dignity, respect, and justice is unwavering.
Faith and Compassion
Faith is the driving force behind our endeavors. We draw inspiration from the teachings of Jesus, who commanded us to “love your neighbor as yourself.” Like the Good Samaritan, who showed compassion to a stranger and foreigner, we minister with care and empathy.
As stewards of our resources, including environmental, financial, and human resources, we recognize the responsibility entrusted to us by God. Our staff and volunteers are invaluable, and we prioritize their development, safety, and well-being. We foster an environment that values cultural diversity and gender equality while encouraging the embodiment of our core values.
A home with heart
Ashfield Baptist Homes is known for fostering a compassionate community, dedicated to enriching lives – and will ensure The Cunningham residents can tap into this legacy.
With unwavering faith, inclusivity, and compassion, Ashfield Baptist Homes promises exceptional care to our cherished residents at every step of their The Cunningham journey.
