About
Katrina Wotherspoon Virtual Doer Founder

MEET Katrina

HEY THERE! I'm Katrina, the heart behind The Virtual Doer, on a mission to transform the care landscape for residential aged care, home care and community service providers.

 

Within the heart of aged care facilities, I discovered a passion beyond just work. Each interaction and every story reminded me of the warmth of my incredible grandparents - Wallace, Marjorie, Arthur and Phyllis. Some of whom faced the heartbreaking challenges of dementia, yet their legacy lives on, not only in my heart but also in the cherished photographs that grace my workspace - a constant reminder of my ‘why’.

​

As a mother of two young sons, the world of virtual support captivated my interest, offering a blend of flexibility and purpose. Welcome to The Virtual Doer - more than just bridging gaps, we're redefining how we care for older people, transforming your approach and elevating the care you provide. 

Katrina Wotherspoon

Behind The Virtual Doer, core values guide every decision: respect, diversity, integrity, and heartfelt empathy. Having walked the aged care journey, I understand the challenges faced by providers and I'm committed to propelling the sector forward. 

 

Now as your virtual support, I simplify workloads, handling administrative tasks that often consume your time. Freeing up you and your team to focus on providing exceptional care to residents and clients. 

​

In an industry that can be slow to embrace virtual solutions, The Virtual Doer transforms by embracing technology for enhanced efficiency and service delivery.

LET'S ELEVATE CARE TOGETHER!

What I stand for

Respect

 

 

In the dynamic aged care and community service sectors, respect is my guiding principle, illuminating every interaction and decision. I create a space where everyone is valued, heard, and respected, fostering an environment of mutual regard at the heart of all interactions.

Empathy

 

 

At the heart of aged care and community service is empathy. I appreciate the challenges, emotions, and intricacies of the sector. By placing myself in the shoes of others, my support is not only efficient but deeply compassionate, resonating with genuine human experiences.

Diversity

 

​

Diversity is the vibrant tapestry of our global community, especially in aged care and community service. I passionately champion this diversity, recognising that unique stories and perspectives enrich our collective experience. In my collaborations, I celebrate and uplift diverse voices, fostering a holistic approach that caters to the varied needs of our community.

Integrity

 

 

Integrity is the foundation of trust. In an industry focused on individual wellbeing, I prioritise unwavering honesty and authenticity. My approach is transparent, rooted in strong ethical principles. I understand the weight of responsibility in aged care and community service, and I am committed to offering reliable support. Through clear communication and upholding high standards, I aim to build lasting relationships based on mutual trust and impeccable integrity.

SERVICE WITH COMPASSION + Empathy

Katrina Wotherspoon

Australia's aged and community service providers play a crucial role in a dynamic and ever-changing landscape. Balancing regulatory changes, operational demands, and the intricate balance of quality care with administrative efficiency can be overwhelming.

 

In the midst of these challenges, my grandparents  legacy inspires my commitment to supporting those who care for our older community. Understanding the challenges providers face, I aim to be the transformative force you’ve been seeking.

​

Recognising the unique nature of each aged and community service provider, my tailored and comprehensive support is designed to streamline operations and navigate the often overwhelming administrative intricacies.

 

As your virtual support, my mission extends beyond task management; it's about relieving pressures, elevating the standards of care and operational excellence.

 

With unwavering compassion and empathy, I am dedicated to adding value, ensuring that every action contributes to the ongoing improvement of our valued older community.
