They help patients and residents with their daily care. This could be during meal rounds, showering and hygiene, toileting and grooming for example.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is an entry level role in the aged care industry, which can open the door to many other positions such as an enrolled nurse, registered nurse, aged care management and beyond.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6 tabindex=\"0\">Where are the assistant in nursing roles that you are recruiting for?<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Since inception, we have nurtured strong relationships with aged care homes across the country.

The average personal care worker casual pay rates are in-between $29 &#8211; $71 per hour.<\/p>\n<p>You can earn bonuses, as well as receive incentives and allowances for eligible certain contract placements. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanctuaryrecruitment.com\/blog\/aged-care-reform-roadmap-explained\/\"><u>Aged care reforms<\/u><\/a> have led to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanctuaryrecruitment.com\/blog\/aged-care-pay-rise-2023\/\"><u>pay rises for aged care workers<\/u><\/a> in recent years, with more developments to come.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6 tabindex=\"0\">What experience do I need to work as a personal care worker through Sanctuary?<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>As a rule of thumb, you need a minimum of six months Australian aged care experience to work through our agency.
