The Vision Way comprises 10 guiding principles that support our code of conduct and set the standard for our daily behaviours and interactions with one another.
These guiding principles include how we care for and respect our patients, their families and each other, and how we remain at the forefront of our fields through continuous education and improvement.
The Vision Way acts as our ‘cultural guardrail’ to ensure everybody knows what is expected using common language. It also helps to foster familiarity, belonging and synchronicity in the way we ‘show up’ in our workplaces every day.
Having been initiated as a direct result of feedback in our 2021 Employee Engagement survey, The Vision Way has brought together all the positive team cultures across our organisation to form a national standard of which we can be proud.
These are our quarterly awards to celebrate staff members who embody The Vision Way values. They allow us to publicly recognise and show appreciation to our wonderful employees and share good news stories across the organisation. Team members are nominated by fellow staff to ensure the opportunity for recognition is available to everyone, regardless of their role or location.
Our day surgeries offer the ideal operating solution for smaller/solo surgical practices, across a wide range of specialties. This means you have an opportunity to support different surgeons specialising in areas including ophthalmology, pain management, dental surgery, general surgery, gastroenterology, urology and dermatology.
You can expect convenience when you work with us. Our day surgeries are well located, and most have free parking for team members.
Our theatre rosters typically cover Monday to Friday operating hours with minimal evening shifts. This means you will have your weekends and nights free to spend as you wish, giving you the work-life balance you’ve been looking for.
We are committed to outstanding patient care and optimal outcomes, especially maintaining patients’ dignity and privacy. Our day surgeries include thoughtful extras that ensure our patients’ comfort, while you do what you do best in making your patients feel personally cared for at every step of their stay with us.
We put a strong focus on teamwork. You will join a team of friendly, highly experienced administrative and specialist theatre staff – led by an on-site Director of Nursing. We strive to foster strong, consistent working relationships with all team members, and are proud of our friendly and supportive workplace culture.
Our employees have access to a range of health and wellbeing benefits. Examples include:
Paid parental leave for the birth or adoption of a child. This includes 10 weeks of paid leave for primary carers and 2 weeks for secondary carers, on top of the government-funded initiative
Discounted private health insurance with Medibank
WHEREFIT for instant online access to exclusive corporate rates at over 400 fitness and wellbeing partners (ranging from big franchises to smaller boutique yoga, pilates and boxing studios)
Staff discounts for ophthalmic services at Vision Hospital Group and our parent company, Vision Eye Institute, as well as at Specsavers, OPSM, Sunglass Hut and Laubman & Pank
Access EAP, an employee assistance program, that provides professional and confidential counselling services for employees and their families
Through our employee referral program, employees can earn $1,000 by referring a friend who is employed by Vision Hospital Group (or Vision Eye Institute) and stays for a minimum of 6 months (casuals included)!
Eligible employees have the option of a beCarWise novated lease. A novated lease is a tax-effective way of purchasing and running a new, used or existing vehicle.
Our milestone anniversary program allows us to recognise and celebrate long periods of service and major career milestones.
In line with The Vision Way, we encourage and support our staff to be lifelong learners who maintain the highest standards. This includes:
Internal and external continuing professional development (CPD) activities (financial and leave allowance, eligibility to apply for a Future Vision Foundation research grant)
Career growth through our LEAD (Leadership Enhancement and Development) Program for managers and team leaders
Our Leadership Conference – a national forum for our leaders to connect with peers, learn from experts and each other, and walk away with new skills, insights and ideas to support them in their leadership roles.
