Non-Profit and Private — Working Together
There’s a lot of noise around care at the moment.
Rising costs. Funding cuts. More people having to pay for their own support.
And naturally, people are starting to ask questions.
“Where is the money going?” “Who is actually benefiting from this?”
They’re fair questions. Important ones. Because not all care is built the same.
At one end, you have non-profit providers like SESNHA.
The model is simple. After costs are covered, anything left doesn’t disappear into someone’s
pocket. It goes back into care.
Better training. Better support for staff. Better systems. Better outcomes for the people we support.
At the other end, you have private providers. And yes — they are allowed to make a profit.
Here2Care sits in that space.
But here’s the part that matters.
Here2Care isn’t separate from those values. It’s owned and led by the same people behind
SESNHA.
Same registered manager. Same expectations. Same philosophy about what care should actually
look like.
So while the structure is different, the standards aren’t.
Because “profit” on its own doesn’t tell you anything.
You have to look at how that profit is made. The decisions behind it. The culture behind it. The
people leading it.
Here2Care is a private company. It needs to be sustainable. It needs to make money to operate
and grow.
But it does that with the same mindset that built SESNHA.
Care first. Staff supported properly. Customers treated like people, not time slots.
The non-profit side keeps us grounded. The private side gives us flexibility.
Together, they allow us to respond, grow, and support more people — especially at a time where
the system is under pressure.
So if you’re trying to make sense of care right now, don’t just look at the label.
Look at who’s behind it. What they’ve built. How they treat people.
That will tell you far more than anything else.
