Personal Care Workers – Make every shift matter!

It's the little things that make the biggest difference. Be the person who makes them happen.

Make every shift matter! Join BallyCara as a casual Personal Care Worker. Morning, afternoon and night shifts available at Scarborough.

A familiar smile. A reassuring hand. A favourite song. A conversation that brightens someone's day.

Sometimes, it's the simplest moments that mean the most.

At BallyCara, our Personal Care Workers do more than provide care – they help create a place where residents feel safe, valued, connected and truly at home.

We're looking for compassionate and reliable Personal Care Workers to join our Residential Aged Care team at Scarborough. If you love getting to know people, take pride in the care you provide and want to finish each shift knowing you've made a difference, we'd love to welcome you to the BallyCara family!

Morning, afternoon and night shifts available, giving you the opportunity to find a casual working arrangement that suits your lifestyle.

Why you'll love being part of BallyCara

We're more than an aged care provider. We're a not-for-profit organisation with a genuine commitment to positive ageing, meaningful relationships and inspiring healthy and happy living.

At BallyCara, we believe our people make the difference. You'll be part of a welcoming, inclusive team where your strengths are appreciated, your contribution matters and you're supported to grow.

We encourage our people to bring their personality, compassion and ideas to work. Because great care isn't just about what you do – it's about how you make people feel.

And we believe in looking after the people who look after others!

About the role – More than personal care

Every resident has their own story, routines, preferences and things that make them smile. Your role is to get to know those little details and help make each day a good one.

As a casual Personal Care Worker, you'll support residents across our Scarborough residential community, helping them maintain their independence, dignity and quality of life.

- Encouraging residents to make choices and remain as independent as possible.
- Bringing comfort, reassurance and companionship when it's needed most.
- Working alongside nurses and fellow team members to deliver coordinated care.
- Observing and reporting changes in residents' health and wellbeing.
- Following clinical procedures and the Aged Care Quality Standards.

It's about seeing the person, not just the task.

What you'll bring

You don't need to have all the answers, but you do need to bring a genuine passion for caring for others.

We're looking for someone who is:

- Compassionate, patient and respectful.
- Reliable, flexible and happy to work as part of a team.
- A confident communicator who enjoys connecting with people.
- Committed to providing safe, quality and person-centred care.
- Physically capable of meeting the requirements of the role.

You'll also need:

- Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing/Aged Care) or a relevant qualification – essential.
- Previous experience in aged care.
- A National Police Certificate or willingness to obtain one.
- COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations are highly recommended.

Your next opportunity could be more meaningful than you think.

Imagine being part of a team where your work matters, your contribution is appreciated and the people you care for become familiar faces whose lives you genuinely brighten.

You could simply take another casual job. Or you could join a community where kindness, connection and compassion are part of every day.

We sincerely thank all applicants for their interest in joining BallyCara. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
