Working in the Care Industry

This year has gone incredibly fast. We just cannot believe that it’s already National Carers Week!

For Right at Home, Aged Care Employee Day (ACED) on the 7th of August is one of the most important dates in our annual calendar.

Thursday was World Youth Skills Day. What does this have to do with in-home care, you ask? Well, pursuing a career in care, or working as a caregiver while pursuing other goals like university or TAFE study, or raising a family, could be the best decision you ever make.

International Nurses Day is held each year on the 12th of May to coincide with the birthday of the founder of modern nursing Florence Nightingale.

Health and safety in the workplace is a basic human right, and we at Right at Home Australia couldn’t agree more.

 Right at Home, Australia's premium and trusted home care provider, promotes Carer's Week. 

Celebrated from the 11th to the 17th of October, National Carers Week is Australia's annual celebration of its caregivers.

Today is Aged Care Employee Day, and Right at Home Australia would like to thank all of our caregivers who dedicate themselves to helping the elderly and those living with a disability every day.

Every year, Right at Home honours its caregivers with a Caregiver of the Year award. The prestigious award celebrates the accomplishments of a select group of caregivers who selflessly deliver extraordinary care to older Australians and adults with disabilities. 

In a recent article, futurist, author and keynote speaker John Sanei made some interesting observations on the jobs of the future.

​National Carers Week 11 to 17 October, is an opportunity to raise community awareness for Australians about the diversity of carers and their caring roles.
