Samaritans Foundation Broadmeadow Office

These people do an amazing job. God bless

Was referred to Samaritans in a time of need for some food relief mainly and other service referrals, both of which were a big help.Their intake assessment can be intimidating and made me feel unwelcomed in the end, so I stopped going after a couple of visits and just went without to avoid this needless intimidation.If you are a single male without kids, you will be judged.

A younger woman who filled out my details sent out the most unfriendly vibes through the place, she not only took over the computer from an elderly lady whose job it was to take down my details, but she left her standing there looking very uncomfortable not knowing what to do for quite a considerable time. I felt very embarrassed and uncomfortable for her.Also, her way of just getting my details was in a very condescending manner.I have only recently finished a course in Community Services III, and based on what I have learnt, that woman IS definitely in the wrong job where she deals with some of the most vulnerable people in society.The two ladies in the other room that did the assessing were quite friendly so my low score is not a reflection on them.As for the free food in the basket, I know beggars can't be choosers, but please, if there's any food on offer, could it at least not be so out of date. I was told, (by the said younger woman), i was only allowed to get one or two food items from a basket on the floor, and the 2 cans of food I got were 8 months out of date.

I had a trouble experience with a Samaritans support coordinator Jordanah Bender that wouldnt help me through my Plan review and ruined my whole Plan ......Did minimal work for me and overcharged for itPlan Management is the best option for anyone on the NDIS there's A lot of scammers that want your funding so keep everything under Plan Management so you can keep a watch where your funds go ...good luck

Before they even asked me any questions the intake lady rolled her eyes at me and said Why are there so many young men trying to get freebies these days."Left immediatly

Max Boddy will claim on your funding but not deliver the support required for disabled clientsHe is dishonest demoralising and down right waste of time 6 months and haven't achieved nothingA complaint has gone to Leanne Kelly who isn't addressing complaints about his conduct and to the Ndis integrity unit about claiming my funding and having nothing to show for itGo to another service don't go hereThey will take your funding and do zilch they won't address complaints and always defer responsibility for their own actionsI really think max and Leanne wants dead if I did then they can't lie to a coroner ...
