About this job
Respect Aged Care is seeking a dedicated and compassionate individual to join our team as a full-time Personal Care Assistant in the Ingham and broader Hinchinbrook area. As the largest provider of aged care services in Regional Australia, we are a proud not-for-profit organisation driven by our commitment to supporting older Australians with dignity, compassion, and genuine connection. When you join our growing, values-led organisation, you become an essential part of a supportive community that thrives on collaboration, trust, and a shared belief in putting residents first.
In this rewarding role, you will play a vital part in enhancing the daily lives of our residents.

You will work closely with our multidisciplinary care team to deliver person-centred care plans, monitor resident health needs, and maintain accurate documentation while ensuring a safe, welcoming, and comfortable living environment.
We are looking for candidates who genuinely care about the elderly and demonstrate patience, empathy, and strong communication skills. While specific requirements are aligned with standard industry practices for aged care professionals, a collaborative mindset and a passion for making a positive difference in the lives of others are essential.
