Our first goal which is central to all the other goals is bringing community together. We cannot deliver health services merely from a clinical care perspective. The health of our community depends on the health of our culture which depends on the health of our lands. When our culture is not well, then our community is not well. We are strong when we are together and not well when we are disconnected.
Ensuring that we, as part of our community, are focused on the health and wellbeing of our community and our culture will ensure improved health outcomes for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on Ngarrindjeri Ruwe.
Quality, integrated and holistic health services
Our second goal is to deliver quality, integrated and holistic health services to ensure an improvement in the health outcomes for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on Ngarrindjeri Ruwe.
Quality means that we will deliver services to the expectations of all industry service standards and to our own standards and the standards expected by the community.
Integrated means that we will work with and connect to the health and support services available on Ngarrindjeri Ruwe to ensure that we ascertain the best services available for our people.
Holistic means that we will listen to what our clients say about their overall health, their situation and their environment and look at different ways to achieve better health which encompasses health determinants.
Growth, Partnerships & Opportunity
Our third goal is to grow our organisation, our service and our infrastructure to support the two ambitious goals of Bringing Community Together and Quality, integrated and holistic health services. Currently, Moorundi is a newly established organisation with minimal service delivery. In order to reach these goals, and to improve the health outcomes for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on Ngarrindjeri Ruwe we need to grow and expand. Expand in service provision, grow our organisations capacity and ensure we have the right infrastructure to deliver these services. We recognise we cannot do this alone, and so, we need to establish long lasting and trusting relationships with our partners. We also need to be prepared and responsive to opportunities that present.

Our Ruwe (Land), Our Culture and Our Community. They cannot be separated.

OUR VISION
Our lands, our waters, our people, all living things are connected, we long for the health of our ancestors to guide us in providing a focal point for all to connect to holistic and integrated health services
The vision for Moorundi Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service vision is based on who we are and where we want to be. Moorundi is not separate to the community, we are a part of the community and as such we have responsibilities to our culture and our lands. We are proudly Ngarrindjeri, and we have a responsibility to provide a safe place and space for our community to engage in health services that meet their needs. We envision providing that safe place of healing, in being a focal point for people to access health services that incorporates the Spiritual, the Cultural, the Social, the Emotional, the Mental and the Physical. That this safe space of healing focuses on wellbeing, including preventative health measures not only on clinical care.
