What your day could look like
You'll help older people stay active, connected and engaged in the things that matter most to them. Working alongside a supportive multidisciplinary team, you'll contribute to care that improves wellbeing, builds confidence and creates meaningful moments for residents across regional communities.
Every day, you'll contribute by:
- Supporting residents to achieve greater independence, mobility and quality of life through personalised therapy support
- Building trusted relationships with residents, families and colleagues to create positive care experiences
- Working alongside allied health professionals to deliver programs that promote wellbeing, participation and healthy ageing
- Bringing ideas, energy and initiative to continuously improve services and outcomes for the people you support
Let's talk about you!
You're someone who genuinely cares about people and finds purpose in helping others achieve their goals. You bring compassion to every interaction, integrity to your work, and respect for the unique experiences of older people. Whether you're supporting someone to regain confidence, maintain independence or stay connected to their community, you understand that small actions can have a lasting impact.
This role will suit someone who enjoys variety, values teamwork and is excited by the opportunity to work across vibrant regional communities while continuing to grow their skills and experience.
Here's what will help you thrive in this role:
- Certificate IV in Allied Health Assistance and a current driver's licence
- The ability to work confidently within a multidisciplinary healthcare team
- Strong communication, organisation and digital literacy skills
- A commitment to safe, person-centred care and ongoing professional development
You'll stand out from the crowd if you have experience in aged care, community health or rural and regional settings, and a passion for supporting healthy ageing.
