Benefits of Becoming a Right at Home Caregiver, Nurse, or Allied Health Practitioner

The foundation of becoming a successful Right at Home caregiver, nurse, or allied health practitioner is a deep passion for people and a commitment to providing high-quality care.

Competitive pay and a reward and recognition program called Right at Home! at some local offices are all part of the advantages of working for Right at Home.

Right About You!™

Right About You! is our employee recognition, wellbeing, and discounts program. The program recognises and supports Right at Home employees, bringing to life our values and culture with the use of eCards to recognise employees and peers doing great work. A key benefit of Right About You! is to help our workforce save money everyday, with discounts at over 400 Australian and international retailers. The best part? ALL of the discount offers can be used in conjunction with any sale prices or promotions offered by the retailer - so our employees save even more on things like groceries, petrol, clothing, entertainment, gadgets, appliances, travel and much more! 

If spending is not their thing, our caregivers click through to our wellbeing portal for tips and tricks on how to maintain a healthy balance in their life. If they are looking for some midweek meal inspiration, needing help winding down at the end of a busy day, or just looking for simple ways to move more, there are loads of videos, recipes, articles, tools and tips to support their physical, financial and mental wellbeing. As part of Right at Home’s RightPeople, we have ensured that whatever makes our employees tick, Right About You! has it covered.
