Helping You Care for Your People

Introducing Responder Care

Responder Care founder, Paul McFarlane, is a nationally recognised leader in emergency services, spiritual care, and workplace wellbeing.

With over three decades of experience across healthcare, chaplaincy, and mental health leadership, Paul now brings this expertise to Australian businesses and first responder organisations through his consultancy role at Responder Care.

Paul’s approach to workplace wellbeing draws on his frontline pastoral experience and prioritises people-centred, relatable models of care.

Workplace wellbeing doesn’t need to be clinical or complicated - practical strategies can bring out the best in your team, are cost-effective, and can be easily implemented by people leaders and business owners.

“I’ve walked alongside first responders through some of Australia’s toughest moments. I bring that same care and insight to help you support your people.”

Helping you Care for Your Business

Running a business today feels like a constant balancing act. Between managing day-to-day operations, supporting your team, and trying to stay ahead, there’s barely time to catch your breath.

When a staff member is struggling, especially with mental health challenges, it often falls on you to step in. You care deeply about your staff, but when they’re struggling, so are you. The stress can seep into your personal life, making it harder to switch off, harder to recharge, and leaving you wondering how much longer you can keep it all together. If you're feeling the weight of it all, you're not alone.
