The Opportunity

When was the last time you made a difference in someone's life?

It takes a special person to be a Home Care Worker and help the older members of our community to maintain their home and enhance their wellbeing. We are looking for just that person to join the Silverchain team in the Hornsby area.

What's on offer

  • Work close to home – Home Care Workers needed now in the Hornsby area

  • Are passionate about providing an excellent service.
  • Can build positive relationships with clients and their families.
  • Care about assisting our aged community members to live independently at home for longer.

In addition, you will need:

  • An Open Australian Driver's Licence & your own insured, roadworthy vehicle
