4.What qualifications and training do We Care staff have?

Our staff are required to undertake a Certificate III in Individual Support (or equivalent) as a minimum.  Many have Certificate IV qualifications in ageing support or disability.  Nursing and allied health staff all hold the requisite qualifications and registrations.

All staff undertake extensive screening prior to commencing with us, including mandatory police checks and working with children checks where appropriate

All staff hold current first aid and CPR qualifications, and many have specific, advanced training in various clinical areas.  This means our staff are well-equipped to work alongside people with spinal cord injuries, acquired brain injuries and challenging behaviours.

Importantly, many of our staff are proficient in a second language including Mandarin, Italian, Greek, Vietnamese, Cantonese, Hebrew, Thai and many more.

We also employ Client Service Managers who oversee support plans and service agreements.  This is particularly important when care plans are complex and involve a range of health professionals, such as NDIS plans.
