Temi Ajayi

Temi founded Mutual Engagement Disability Services on a single conviction: that the people who need support most are often the hardest to reach. As Director, she leads MEDS with a background that combines registered nursing practice with executive business leadership, bringing genuine expertise to both sides of the care equation.

She holds a Bachelor of Nursing, a Diploma of Health Science, and a Certificate IV in Disability Support, and is a registered nurse. She also holds a Master of Business Administration from Victoria University and is a John Maxwell Team Certified Coach, with more than two decades of experience across healthcare, disability services, and organisational leadership. She is a commissioned Justice of the Peace in the Wyndham district.

Her clinical background shapes how MEDS operates day to day. The same standard that governs nursing practice, safety, accountability, and participant dignity, runs through every team process, every referral partnership, and every service plan at MEDS. Her MBA adds the operational discipline to hold that standard consistently, across every client and every site.

A former Vice President of the Nigerian Society of Victoria, Temi brings a first-hand understanding of the cultural, linguistic, and geographic barriers that many MEDS participants and their families navigate. That understanding is not incidental to the work. It is the work.
