Meet,

Paula Ward

I am new member of Proactive Support, joining mid-2024.  I am excited be a part of a business that cares so much about people and are doing all they can to help integrate them into the community & make their lives better in so many ways.  My professional background is management in Healthcare Administration in the United States.   I married a Kiwi and moved to the South Pacific, and my husband & I currently own a business together.

Proactive Support’s purpose & values are so important to me, because my own father was total care for many years after a stroke and several amputations.  My brother & I looked after his needs day & night.  I know the importance of having people within a company that cares and also trusted staff that know that their daily tasks are more than a job.  That would have meant the world to me and my family.  I am most grateful for the opportunity to be in the background supporting this great company & staff and share its family values.

When not behind a computer you may find me playing the grand piano, cooking, growing a cut flower garden for bouquets to share with family, friends, & neighbors, playing with my little dog, Daisy, or having travel adventures with my wonderful husband, Jason.
