Care Support Worker

Have you ever had someone make a huge difference in your life through something simple like a smile, a friendly hello, or offering a little help? That's exactly the kind of people we're looking for - everyday heroes. We want local people living in Adelaide to help turn simple moments into meaningful memories for older people in your community.

At Murray Mallee Aged Care Group, we believe magic happens in life's ordinary moments:

When you're dusting Mrs. Jones shelves and discover she was once a professional dancer. She lights up and tells you stories of the good old days.

As you help Tom tend to his prize-winning rose garden that he's been nurturing for 40 years.

When you accompany Sarah to her weekly social club, where she's been a life member since 1998.

While Maria teaches you her secret scone recipe, the same one that her grandmother taught her many years ago.

As a Support Worker, your job is to make our clients' golden years truly GOLDEN Each day will be an adventure filled with these small but special moments as you drive from one client's home to another, ready to make someone's day.
