Helping elderly Australians continue to live at home is incredibly rewarding and it really requires a team effort to do it well. So, we will back you up with experienced Care Coordinators that have the time and focus to answer your questions and provide guidance and support when you need it.

Getting to know the personalities and life stories of clients is amazing. We will provide you with comprehensive information about them and their needs, and rostering to maintain continuity with them, so you can quickly build rapport and deeper relationships.

You also have a life and responsibilities outside of work though, and we will work with you to agree the shifts that suit you and remain flexible and open-minded for whatever might come up in the future.

We are a not-for-profit organisation, but more importantly, we are like one big family and treat each of our clients and team members with the same levels of passion, care, and respect.

We are hoping you will join our fantastic Whiddon family at Beaudesert on a Permanent Part-time basis working at least 16hrs per fortnight, visiting clients in the Beaudesert area.
