Bethanie - Mission | Values | Bethanie Behaviours | About

Bethanie is a leading Mission led, aged care provider based in Western Australia. Founded in 1954, Bethanie empowers ageing Australians to lead their most meaningful lives by providing environments that compel purpose, activate communities, progress research and education, and support mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing.

Our Mission

Bethanie’s mission is to demonstrate the love of God by positively changing the way Australians experience ageing — every customer, every family, every community, every day.

This mission has been driving Bethanie for 70 years, and has taught our organisation the transformative power of being guided by purpose. We believe that’s what makes us truly different. Like other providers, we strive to deliver the fundamentals: fantastic safety, care, and support; but we’re also driven to go further, understand our people and support their interests, and empower ageing Australians to lead their most meaningful lives.

Our History

Bethanie has grown over 70 years to now provide person-centered care for more than 4,500 customer across aged care services and accommodation. Over the past seven decades, Bethanie has grown from modest beginnings into a leading provider of care for older West Australians. The Bethanie journey is defined by dedication, growth, and a steadfast commitment to our Mission.

We are grateful to our residents, clients and tenants for choosing Bethanie as their aged care home, retirement village, home care service provider, and community housing. This strong foundation and commitment to purposeful connections have sustained us for 70 years and will continue to guide our future growth.

Through our Mission focus we can continue to positively support ageing West Australians in our community. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve and grow for the past 70 years.

Our Story

At Bethanie, we believe everyone is a valued member of society. We see ageing Australians as dynamic people who’ve led (and should continue to lead) interesting, purposeful and fulfilling lives. Because science (and life) tells us that true happiness comes from feeling valued. From being given the opportunity to meaningfully contribute, to give back, and to share with others.

For our residents and our communities, this may mean helping to raise grandchildren, expressing self creatively, contributing to community groups, continuing to enjoy lifelong passions, or simply just laughing with those they love. No one should lose the right to meaningful experiences as they age, and the world shouldn’t be deprived of what they have to offer.

By starting with an understanding of each of our resident’s meaning and intention, and working as peers to better enable them, we’re creating environments where lives aren’t filled, they’re full.

Our Bethanie Behaviours

Building on the solid foundations of our past and practically expressing what “God’s love demonstrated is”, we developed the Bethanie Behaviours.

These Behaviours will guide us as individuals, teams, and as an organisation, strengthening our commitment to advancing Bethanie’s Mission in service to our customers and in our care for each other.

There are countless opportunities of living out our Mission with intent and purpose, every day, moment by moment.
