Join a team that, like you, truly loves what they do, deeply cares for our residents, and is invested in building real, lasting relationships.

3. Provide assistance with daily living activities like personal hygiene, grooming and oral care.
4. Offer social and emotional support by being there for residents, creating smiles, listening to life stories, and sharing cultures.
5. Assist residents during mealtimes and help them engage in lifestyle activities.
6. Document incidents and care, while participating in Work Health and Safety programs.

3. Prior experience as a Personal Care Assistant-Assistant in Nursing (PCA-AIN) in aged care is preferred, but training will be provided for newcomers.
