About us

Wintringham is a specialised non-religious not-for-profit welfare organisation.

We employ more than 1,000 staff across Victoria and Tasmania. Eunice Seddon Home, located in Dandenong, offers affordable, high-quality accommodation to people aged 50 years and over.

Your new role

We are currently seeking a compassionate Personal Care Assistant to join our friendly and dynamic team at Eunice Seddon Residential Aged Care Home on a Casual basis. This role is ideal for someone who believes in dignity for all, values inclusion, and wants to make a meaningful difference in the lives of older people—especially those who have experienced disadvantage or housing insecurity. Your fortnightly roster will be determined by ad-hoc opportunities to offer relief to the team, with flexibility to support residents when they need it most.

Your responsibilities and duties will include:

  • Supporting residents with personal care including hygiene, dressing, grooming, and other daily living activities—always with respect and empathy.
  • Observing and reporting changes in residents' behaviour or physical condition to ensure timely and appropriate care.
  • Liaising with medical practitioners, pharmacists, and health services to advocate for residents' health and wellbeing.
  • Assisting in the implementation of cigarette and alcohol programs, supporting residents' autonomy while promoting safety.
  • Maintaining accurate documentation and contributing to a culture of transparency and continuous improvement.

We are looking for candidates with the following:

  • A strong commitment to social justice, inclusion, and person-centred care.
  • Ability to work both collaboratively and independently, with initiative and compassion.
  • Certificate III/IV in Aged Care/Individual Support.
  • Prior experience in housing & homelessness support, aged care, welfare, disability support, mental health, or community/home care.
  • A keen eye for detail and a proactive approach to care.
  • Excellent communication skills and a friendly, non-judgmental attitude.
  • A genuine desire to enhance or maintain residents' independence and lifestyle choices.
