We understand the importance of flexibility.

Let us know your availabilities and we will do our best to accommodate.

Tasks could include personal care, social support, domestic assistance, assistance with medications, in home respite care and transporting clients.

Salary packaging lets you pay for everyday expenses like rent, mortgage, car repayments, groceries and bills with pre-tax income instead of after-tax pay. This can reduce your taxable income and increase disposable income, leaving you with more money for other essentials or extras. Many Australians already take advantage of salary packaging to boost their take-home pay.

Yes! We are always looking to further develop, train and support our team members with their professional development.

Travel time and kilometres is paid from client to client.

We have an in depth onboarding process as well as joint visits (buddy shift) in the field with an experienced support worker to help you learn on the job.

Unlike Residential Care, your clients for home care will be in their own homes. You will typically have 4-5 clients in a day, each in their own homes, not the same facility. If you enjoy independence and variety, this could be the job you’ve been looking for!
