Service Coordinator Story
Service Coordinator Aaron is the winner of this year’s Milena Morrow Award.
Aaron being presented by Mark, former CEO
He is a very special person who approaches his work with determination and outstanding kindness to our Members.
Aaron spent the first 12 years of his career in the Royal Australian Navy. He moved on to study medical science working as a paramedic and then in mental health.
A few years ago Aaron found his calling in Support Coordination, where he skillfully navigates the everchanging landscape of NDIS.
He’s like a dog with a bone determined to help Members achieve the most from their NDIS plans. A letter he wrote on behalf of a Member to a local MP made its way to the Office of the Minister of NDIS. Within a couple of days, all was resolved with a positive outcome.
Aaron believes that all Member needs are unique, and he loves the challenge of finding solutions to help them achieve their goals. One of his superpowers is how he balances lighthearted banter with detailed discussion, honed from his industry knowledge and experience.
Recently Aaron found a relatively new Member, critically unwell on his kitchen floor. He was then hospitalised and spent time in the ICU. The Member doesn’t have family to support him, so Aaron supported his discharge and post-hospital care, arranging in-home support, and working together with health professionals. The Member is now back enjoying life and living independently.
“While this recognition is meaningful to me, I see myself as part of a broader effort, representing the exceptional work of the Support Coordination team.”
Aaron told us that while not everything can achieve a positive outcome, guiding Members through the tough times and showing them what is possible is the sweet spot, and always celebrating the small victories.
Thank you Aaron, you’re a champion!
An award that honors the late Milena Morrow, a founding Member, Chair, and advocate whose passion and dedication left a special impact.
