About Us
Parkes Consultancy Services was established to help businesses within the Aged and Community Services navigate the inherent challenges associated with their services' operations and compliance and improve health metrics by developing tailored solutions with greater choice and flexibility.
We know first-hand that each service is unique with its own challenges - no two (2) services are alike, whether it be systems-based differences, demographics or workplace culture. Therefore, each service requires an individualised approach to address challenges and, ultimately, obtain sustainable outcomes for the immediate and foreseeable future. Using this individualised approach enables us to build strategies aligned with your services capabilities - in other words; we set you and your team up for success!
​
At Parkes Consultancy Services, we are driven by our commitment to achieving excellence and going the extra mile to ensure clients are fully satisfied with our work. Our trademark approach is based on collaboration and partnership with you and your team to enhance capabilities and consolidate the path forward based on best practices guidelines.
