- **Full-time regular work on offer, Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm**

**About the role**

As a Support Worker at VMCH you will provide individual direct care and support to our older home care clients who are co-located at two sites in St. Kilda and Parkville. You will work closely with an on-site Care Manager, who is supported by a clinical team. This group of lower-care clients will require assistance with some ADLs which will predominantly include respite, social support, transport assistance, and basic personal care. Tasks may include:

**About you**

You have a passion for working with elderly people and their families. Ideally, you will also have experience caring for people with specific care needs, including dementia and challenging behaviours.

You have a flexible approach to your work and the ability to work remotely and autonomously, often without direct supervision.

**Requirements**:

- Minimum Cert III Individual Support / Home & Community Care / Aged Care or equivalent
- Current First Aid Certificate (HLTAID003)
