Aged care and social work consultant Toby Hammerman was invited to contribute to Montefiore’s Operations & Quality Committee in 2017 and joined as a Board Member in 2018. He is proud to serve an organisation that he believes is an industry leader, thanks to its best practice offerings in allied health care, spiritual and cultural services and more.

Toby’s combination of academic and professional expertise allows him to make a valuable contribution to Montefiore. He holds a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of New South Wales and a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Haifa, the latter specialising in community-based residential care. Toby has 15 years’ experience as a Senior Quality Assessor with the Australian Government’s Aged Care Quality Agency, monitoring the quality of care and services in all nursing homes across Australia. He also has a particular interest in the delivery of catering, cleaning and laundry services as he previously owned and operated award-winning retail food outlet Toby’s Treats for 12 years.

Toby’s commitment to serving the Jewish Community is also longstanding. He is a former CEO of the Sydney Jewish Museum, Habonim Dror leader and NSW Jewish Board of Deputies delegate.
