What if your workday was filled with moments that truly matter?
Joan wants to keep living independently at home.
She loves her garden, catching up with friends and doing things for herself.
But since giving up driving, getting to medical appointments has become harder.
Joan contacts My Aged Care, completes an assessment and is allocated a Support at Home program
That's where you come in.
As Joan's Care Partner, you listen to what's getting in the way and work with her to find a solution.
Together, you'll adjust her services to include transport and some extra support to help her navigate those confusing specialist appointments.
The relief that brings Joan?
That's what being a Care Partner is all about.
As a Care Partner, you'll build relationships, solve problems and coordinate the care and services that help older people stay independent at home.

You listen before you solve.
Great support starts with understanding what matters to the person.
