We are looking for quality Care Workers/Assistants in Nursing (AINs) to join our team across the Newcastle Region.
We have exciting new openings in Newcastle, Maitland, Port Stephens, and surrounding areas, and we can start you immediately!

* Medication Reminders: keeping seniors in their homes and out of the hospital.
* And other activities of daily living.
Our unique approach to in-home aged care promotes a high quality of life for seniors and allows family caregivers to resume their role as a loving and supportive family member.
Who you are:
* Caring, compassionate, and committed to delivering quality care to the elderly.
