  • Getting clients out of bed, showered and dressed for the day
  • Assisting clients to take their medications
  • Assisting with mobility and therapy goals
  • Providing complex care for customers with high care needs, such as dementia
  • Providing social and emotional support
  • Providing the client with transport to lifestyle activities or appointments
  • Helping the family carer to have a break or an opportunity to do other things.

  • Everyone at Silverchain, from our care teams to leadership, plays a vital role in delivering Best Care. It's a team effort.
  • Best Care is care that is safe, personal, connected and effective.
  • We are proudly one of the few Australian home care providers accredited in both national health and aged care standards. This means the quality of care we provide is expected to meet the same standards as a hospital or residential aged care facility.
  • As a not for profit organisation, we re-invest our funds into research and developing innovative models of care to set the industry benchmark for the provision of the best care in the home.
  • We'll also provide you with opportunities to help you develop and grow in your career, with training and education programs to help you achieve your goals.
