Care Partner - Support at Home
The Basin
Are you passionate about helping older Australians maintain their independence and continue living safely at home? We have a client seeking an experienced and compassionate Care Partner to join their growing Support at Home team.
Our client is a purpose-driven organisation committed to supporting older people to live independently.
This is a wonderful opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of clients and families, working in a collaborative multidisciplinary team environment.
In this rewarding role, you will work closely with older people and their families to develop personalised care plans, coordinate services, and deliver restorative, goal-focused support that enhances quality of life, wellbeing, and independence.
About the Role
As a Care Partner overseeing a caseload of approximately 40 clients you will be responsible for managing a portfolio of clients receiving Support at Home services. You will conduct assessments, develop and review care plans, coordinate supports, and work collaboratively with allied health professionals, service providers, families, and the broader care team.
Key responsibilities include:
- Conducting comprehensive in-home assessments and identifying participant goals.
- Developing person-centred care plans that promote reablement, wellbeing, and independence.
- Coordinating services, referrals, assistive technology, equipment, and home modifications.
- Supporting participants through restorative interventions focused on strength, mobility, daily living skills, and social engagement.
- Managing documentation, compliance requirements, budgets, care reviews, and funding obligations.
- Building strong relationships with participants, families, GPs, allied health professionals, and community providers.
- Contributing to quality improvement initiatives, audits, and risk management activities.
About You
To be successful in this role, you will bring:
- Demonstrated experience in Support at Home, community aged care, restorative care, or reablement programs.
- An understanding of the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards and Support at Home Program requirements.
- Robust assessment, care planning, and case management skills.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities.
- High-level documentation and compliance skills.
- Sound computer skills and experience using client management systems.
- A current driver's licence and willingness to travel throughout the local service area.
- A relevant qualification in Nursing, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Social Work, or another allied health discipline, along with AHPRA registration, will be highly regarded but is not essential.
This role will commence as a locum role but offers the chance to become a permanent staff member for the right person.
This is a diverse and rewarding opportunity with autonomy and variety.
You will enjoy supportive leadership and opportunities for professional development.
