Te Puke, New Zealand HealthCare NZ Full time NZ$23,970 - NZ$29,680 per year

HealthCare NZ is a leading provider of in-home and community-based health, rehabilitation, nursing, mental health and disability support. Our aim is to help people live as independently as possible, for as long as possible, and to maintain their independence regardless of age, injury, illness or disability.

Are you looking to make a real difference in your community?

We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers across our services including community and rehabilitation, disability and social services.

Whether you are looking for flexibility around other commitments or prefer regular rostered shifts, we offer a variety of permanent full-time and part-time options.

What does a Support Worker do?

As part of a wider team, you will assist clients to live as independently as possible in their homes and community. You will help clients achieve their goals and reach their potential through both practical and emotional support.

Responsibilities may include:

  • Meal preparation
  • Community outings and integration
  • Giving medication
  • Personal cares (showering, toileting etc)
  • Home management

What's in it for you?

We are committed to our employees and proud to employ and train the best people. We provide a career pathway through our learning and development framework to achieve NZQA qualifications, which are fully funded. You will earn between $23.97 and $29.68 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications.

This is an opportunity to join New Zealand's largest community healthcare provider and gain experience across aged care, disability, mental health and rehabilitation. While part of a large national organisation, you will join a dedicated and close-knit team.

What are we looking for?

  • A great attitude - a desire to help and support others, achieving excellence in all you do
  • Previous healthcare or caregiving experience is desirable but not essential
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Healthcare qualifications are advantageous
  • Most positions require a full NZ driver's licence and reliable transport

At HealthCare NZ, we are passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that values diversity and reflects the communities we serve. If you are passionate about what you do and want a rewarding career with us, we would love to hear from you.
