Embark on a rewarding career and be part of a team where your dedication makes a difference in people's lives.
About The Role:
Working in aged care has never been more meaningful. Join Monash Health's Aged and Community Care (ACC) program and make a real difference to older people living at home and in the community.
This part-time, ongoing role (0.4 EFT / 30.4 hours per fortnight) is your chance to:
- Provide therapy and assessments that empower independence and recovery
- Lead group programs like Aphasia and Communication Groups, where you'll create an inclusive space for clients to practice and improve their communication skills
- Deliver evidence-based, person-centred care that's trauma-informed and culturally sensitive
- Collaborate with allied health colleagues and community-based services to maximise the clinical outcomes and operational efficiency of the program
If you're passionate about aged care and want to be part of a supportive, innovative, and client-focused team, we'd love to hear from you.
About Us:
It's an exciting time to be part of the aged care sector, with national reforms placing older Australians at the centre of care. These changes focus on improving quality, safety and choice - ensuring services are responsive, respectful, and person-centred.
At Aged Care Services, we deliver support across the full continuum of Commonwealth-funded aged care - home care, community programs, and residential services.
Our vision is simple yet powerful: to provide exceptional care and experiences that are sustainable, responsive to individual needs and preferences, and that uphold the rights of older people.
We aim to keep clients living independently in their communities for as long as possible, promoting health, independence, and self-management, while providing timely support to decline or hospital admission.
