Abstract

VIVA Mutual is an Australian social enterprise that provides health services to clients of the National Disabilities Insurance Scheme (NDIS) through in-home health care provision. Essentially, this is delivery of publicly funded health services outside the public system, an area of research previously explored by Hall et al., (2016) in the UK context. VIVA Mutual has adapted a Buurtzorg model ensuring integrated and holistic client outcomes are organised through empowered work models. Buurtzorg was founded in 2006 by a not-for-profit nursing home organisation in the Netherlands. They used local teams of no more than 12 nurses to deliver community based aged care and adopted a flat organisational structure with minimal back-office support. “Buurtzorg attributed much of its success to empowering its nurse team to build relationships with patients and make independent decisions, not only about patient care, but also about team management” (Bernstein et al., 2022, p.1). VIVA aims to deliver a more innovative, cost-efficient and responsive health care services (Hall et al., 2016) through a social enterprise model.
