You are their smile. Their joy. Their morning walks, and tea-time talks.

Their keeper of stories; of moments and memories. The dignity they deserve. Community they belong to. And family to come home to.

You are their kindness. Compassion. Empathy. And understanding.

The difference in their lives.

You deserve every opportunity to be recognised, supported and challenged to fulfill your role in the world. But what does this look like?

**The opportunity**

It takes a unique person to care the way you do. We see it, our managers see it, and our residents, customers and their families see it. Within this community, you are valued for the impact you make and thanked for your selfless care.

Day to day, you’ll help older people live with dignity, whether that’s helping them get around, go to the bathroom, take a shower, or enjoy a meal with a friendly face - in line with their personalised care plan. You will help them celebrate life with community-based fun and social activities and bring them a sense of belonging in so doing.

With our high standards in clinical and compassionate care, you will have the space to innovate and excel, doing work you are proud of.

**The benefits**
- A fantastic on-boarding program to set you up for success, ongoing support and mentoring from clinical educators
- Opportunities to gain further qualifications and develop broader holistic care skills in physical, mental health and social, with ongoing advanced training
- Subsidised access to your local gym and 200+ more across the country with a Fitness Passport
- 24/7 access to mental, physical, social, and financial support via the LifeWorks app
- Triple winner 2024 - Excellence in Workplace Culture, Excellence in Large Business, and the ultimate honour
- **Business of the Year** Join us and experience the Warrigal Way.

**The requirements | What it takes to do this work**

No matter your role, it takes a real love of caring, a willingness to jump in and do the work, and a genuine desire to make a difference. As a Home Care Worker, you’ll also need:

- An empathy and commitment to the care of older people
- Certificate III in Aged Care or Individual Support OR prior experience in a related role
- Administer and Monitor Medications Certificate HLTHP007 (highly desirable)
- Good interpersonal and written communication skills
- Demonstrated ability to work unsupervised
- Availability to attend our 3 day on-boarding program
- Current First Aid certificate or enrolled to obtain
- Current Drivers License, a reliable car with comprehensive car insurance

**What our Home Service Carers love about working here**:
**Feeling safe and supported**: We’ve built a highly supportive, close-knit community that values and respects each other. Find approachable, empathetic leaders intent on listening to your ideas; and processes, policies and resources that allow you to do your job well. You’ll have the support you need to provide exceptional care, without feeling overwhelmed. Here we have each other’s back - no matter what.

**Better life balance**: We respect your life outside of your job, and work with you to design schedules that help you plan your study, family, and personal commitments around better, steadier rosters.

**A focus on care over profits**: As a for-purpose organisation, we focus on care, not profits, putting everything back into the business. That means you can focus on caring and creating the best possible experience for our elderly, instead of filling investor pockets. Here you can have a greater purpose and impact.

**One team, united in our purpose**: We support older people to have great lives. We put older people first in everything we do. On an everyday level, we help them age with dignity, independence, happiness, and connectedness. On a big picture level, we’re challenging ageist thinking in Australia. This is the Warrigal Way.

**Who we are | A community who cares**
Warrigal has firmly established itself in the aged care community for over 60 years. Despite the diverse range of retirement living and aged care services we’ve built up in that time, we still have the same appetite to grow and innovate. Meaning, you’ll have the chance to move around, get promoted or explore different areas across our expanding business in Illawarra, Southern Highlands, Queanbeyan, and Canberra - if that’s what you want.

**Join us and be the difference**

We proudly acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and live, and we honour their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to Country. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging.
