About

Marise Goddard-Jones and Leslie Gevers are the Directors and Principal Consultants for GGJ Consultants. Marise is a Registered Nurse and expert in clinical governance and practice, and support procedures as well as corporate procedures. Leslie, a Social Worker and a graduate in Psychology and Information Technology, is expert in management systems, corporate procedures, data analysis and research. Both directors have highly developed organisational and writing skills.

Both consultants have well over 30 years’ experience in residential aged care and home care including many years as aged care assessors. We have been developing policies and procedures templates since 1988, when we developed the first version of the HACC Policies and Procedures Manual. We also developed the Home Care Standards for the Australian Government, which formed the basis of the current Aged Care Quality Standards with most of the material relevant to the new 2024 Standards.

Through our work on Standards and policies and procedures we have a comprehensive understanding of the Aged Care Quality Standards and can guarantee that our policies and procedures are accessible to all staff, are easy to understand and will be easy to maintain up to date.
