Why Helping Hand?
We get it - a role in aged care is more than just money. You don’t do it for the pat on the back. You do it because you know it matters - and at Helping Hand, you matter, too.
We truly care about how you are. Here are some of the things we hope you’ll love about working with us:
* We are who you are
Here’s the thing. When good people come together, amazing things happen. At Helping Hand, you’ll find real support from teammates and managers who share your values and strength. They’ve been in your shoes - and they’ll always be just a phone call away to lend a helping hand.
* We are where you are
As our Gardener, you’ll know you’re contributing directly to a community you care about. And you’ll see your impact on the faces of the people you’re supporting.
