South Melbourne, Australia Australian Unity Full time

At Australian Unity we are going through an exciting phase of innovative change with the commissioning of a brand-new Aged Care Precinct opening its doors in beautiful South Melbourne in May 2023.

Currently home to The Grace Retirement Community, which comprises 79 residences, The Alba Aged Care Suites (95 beds) and Easy Living Apartments (60 apartments) will provide customers with a continuum of options from independence through to clinical care and memory support. It will offer state-of-the-art facilities within a light filled interior, on-site café, private dining facilities, hair and beauty spa, and gym along with many other activities in the Albert Park Lake area.

Our Better Together model focuses on providing the best care to our residents and work life balance for our staff. We ensure that residents will truly be able to partner with teams to create their own care plans, schedules and ensure that they are living their lives the way that they want to.

With the Better Together model and its purpose, the facility will not just be an Aged Care Facility; it will be the resident’s home and we are seeking the best talent to make this possible.

The Alba Aged Care Suitesopened in early June 2023, and we are looking for our new staff to join us as soon as possible.
