Our Mission, Vision and Values are our constant guide to making appropriate decisions for a sustainable, socially relevant service that is genuinely committed to the delivery of a healthy community for everyone.

We bring God's mercy to our communities through compassionate, transforming, healing ministries. 

Since founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1906, Mater has been guided by this clear and unwavering Mission.


Vision

Empowering people to live better lives through improved health and wellbeing. 

Mater believes every individual has the right to access world-class healthcare services, and is committed to supporting good health spiritually, emotionally, socially and physically. 

Values

  • We honour and promote the dignity of human life and of all creation.
  • We strive for excellence.

These values assist us in our decision—making, and shape our workplace culture. Our values are reflected in all that we do, and are visible to all through the way in which we behave and interact with one another.
