Traralgon, Australia Benetas Full time

**Personal Care Worker - Multiple Locations (Bendigo, Gisborne, Mornington, Traralgon)**

**What you do matters**

Caring for our elders matters. You touch the lives of those you care for and their families. At the same time, you cherish small moments and celebrate life stories.

At the same time, you need a team that cares for you Full-time hours, regular shifts, or flexible work hours that suit your other commitments like study, grandchildren, or school drop-offs to help you do your best - at work and at home.

Our residential aged care homes are just that, a home for our residents. You’ll work as part of a team of people and help with showering, dressing, simple cleaning, linen service, and meals. But you’ll also be there to spend time with residents, share stories, connect and show kindness and empathy.

We have regular full-time, morning, afternoon and night shifts. If it suits you, weekends too. It can be a great learning environment if you’re new to the industry as you’ll be exposed to experienced carers and nursing staff.

**Why work with us?**
- not-for-profit salary packaging advantages to give you more money in your pocket
- paid training hours to build your skills
- digital devices to keep you connected and organised on the road
- potential to move within Benetas so that your story with us continues
- carer traineeships if you are not yet qualified
- dedicated senior carers to help induct and mentor you

Not sure what salary packaging is? Put simply, a portion of your pay is deducted before tax to give you more take-home pay. Don’t worry, we use a salary packaging partner to guide you through this

**What we look for**
- a genuine passion for caring for our elders
- able to work independently and as part of a team
- able to communicate and build rapport with clients in English (other languages can be helpful too)
- Cert III or higher in Individual Support or related studies (i.e. nursing)
- students studying Individual Support or related
- respect for all, regardless of background, gender, age, religion, race, or sexual orientation

**What will you be doing?**
- assisting patients with their personal care needs such as showering, dressing and eating
- assisting patients with their mobility and communication needs
- participating in planning the care of individuals
- following therapy plans such as interventions to assist those with dementia and behavioural problems
- observing and reporting changes in patients' condition, and reporting complaints about care
- assisting with rehabilitation exercises, basic treatment and delivering medications
- providing direct support and assistance to therapists

We are growing and want you to grow with us. Our elders are more than just their age. They are our historians, storytellers, comedians, parents, siblings, and friends. And, they deserve the best care possible - you.

The salary range for this full time role is $31.47 per hour + superannuation.
