About us

Hi there We're Five Good Friends, and we're an approved aged care and registered NDIS service provider. We help our clients (we call them Members) live vibrantly in their own homes by wrapping a care team around them and their families. Our software coordinates in the background so our teams can do their best work.

Good people using friendly software is how we do care differently and why we're invited back into the homes of our Members - over 28,500 times a month. More and more people are choosing Five Good Friends, and we want to help them. Our carers (we call the Helpers) play a key role in creating the magic for our members. Five Good Friends strives to form high-quality, long-lasting connections between Members and their Helpers.

About the Role

Our new role of Restorative Care Partner, reporting to the Manager – Complex and Clinical Care, is part of our Clinical Care team and plays a key role in shaping our Restorative Care Pathway under the new Support at Home program.

Working closely with older Australians, you'll deliver evidence-based, person-centred care that supports independence and wellbeing. This collaborative role offers the opportunity to contribute to a passionate team, apply your allied health expertise, and make a meaningful impact on the lives of our Members so they can continue living well in the homes and communities they love.

The core responsibilities of the role include:

• Design and Develop Restorative Care Services: Lead and contribute to the development, rollout, and continuous improvement of the Restorative Care Pathway under Support at Home, collaborating with internal teams and sector partners to co-design innovative service models.
• Deliver Evidence-Based Clinical Support: Conduct functional and clinical assessments, develop personalised goal and exit plans, and coordinate therapeutic interventions through our partner network to support Member wellness and reablement.
• Empower Members and Their Support Networks: Educate and support Members, families, and Helpers with practical strategies to enhance independence and quality of life at home.
• Maintain Clinical and Program Knowledge: Stay informed about the Restorative Care Pathway program requirements, including support plan monitoring and funding optimisation, while maintaining accurate and timely clinical records.
• Collaborate and Drive Continuous Improvement: Work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure coordinated, person-centered care and actively contribute to service development, quality improvement, and professional learning initiatives.

Do you have what it takes?

• Tertiary qualification in Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy or another allied health discipline.
• Demonstrated knowledge, understanding and experience in these key areas:
• Current aged care reforms and the Support at Home program.
• Familiarity with the Aged Care Quality Standards.
• Restorative care and reablement approaches within the aged care context.
• Current registration with AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) or similar.
• A police clearance certificate or willingness to apply.
• Current driver's licence and willingness to undertake reasonable travel.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, including the ability to build rapport with older people and their families.
• Ability to work both independently, and collaboratively/as a leader of a multidisciplinary team.

What's in it for you?

The way we work and the perks we offer are designed to help you live a fulfilling life. The work we do is meaningful, and the problems we solve are interesting.

• A competitive salary package that will recognise your skills and experience.
• Flexible work options to support work/life balance.
• Annual $500 health and well-being allowance to spend on anything contributing to your health and well-being away from work.
• On top of the standard 4 weeks of annual leave, after your second year, you will accumulate an additional day of annual leave each year you are with us. You will also have access to our Pandemic Leave policy and have the chance to purchase additional annual leave.
• Access to our employee assistance programme, where you can receive free confidential and professional counselling.
• Parental leave benefits –All caregivers who are eligible for the government's paid parental leave scheme will receive top-up wage payments. Additionally, primary caregivers will receive top-up superannuation payments for their first year of unpaid parental leave.
• One free Five Good Friends membership plan, which covers the Care Management fees. This can be used for a loved one who is supported by Five Good Friends. This could be worth more than $7000/yr.
• Working for a company that has an employee engagement score that is 17% higher than the industry average, and 7% higher than the top 25% industry average (we are actually a great place to work).
• And… after 5 years of continuous service, you will receive a trip to Okinawa, Japan - the community that inspired the creation of Five Good Friends. Costs of your return economy airfare, 5 nights in hotel accommodation and airport transfers will be paid.
