Overview

You will assist nurses in routine tasks with aged care residents living in the Carnarvon and Anchusa Nursing Homes on Kangaroo Island. Assisting residents with the activities of daily living, you will perform a range of duties that require basic aged care skills, knowledge, training and experience. You will perform routine technical support functions at the level of setting up for nursing procedures, cleaning equipment and managing local stock levels. Ensuring that the care provided is person-centred and of a high standard, you will contribute to the maintenance of a physically and culturally safe environment for residents and staff. As part of your role, you will participate in quality improvement activities through recording and reporting data and reviewing established guidelines, protocols, procedure, standards and systems of work as set out by the health service. Enjoying a team approach to holistic, client-centred care, this is a great opportunity to learn on the job and make a difference to the wellbeing of aged care residents.

You will need to be enrolled as a student in an undergraduate program in nursing, or hold a Certificate III or IV in aged care or home and community care. Demonstrating a commitment to providing person-centred care, you will work well under limited direction within a multidisciplinary team environment. You will have a good understanding of aged care standards, and bring the ability to communicate effectively with people from a diverse range of backgrounds. Along with a commitment to maintaining resident confidentiality, you will display empathy towards the elderly and be willing to develop a positive rapport with residents and their families.
