Employment Opportunities

A rewarding home care career

Aquamarine is actively seeking compassionate and qualified individuals to join its family of caregivers who provide “companion care” for seniors so they can remain independent in their own homes for as long as possible. We assist the elderly with meal planning and preparation, errands and incidental transportation, laundry, assistance with showering and dressing light housekeeping, and many other day-to-day tasks.

Aquamarine’s hiring process

We are seeking caregivers who are warm, compassionate, patient and love working with the elderly members of our community. Hours are flexible and designed to work with you and your family. Successful applicants need a valid Driver’s License, a clean driving record, a reliable car with up-to-date insurance, and a genuine compassion and affection for seniors. We do not hire people who have a criminal record, or recent history of drug or alcohol abuse. Thorough background checks are conducted on all applicants to ensure the safety of our clients.

Thank you for your interest in working with Aquamarine Personalised Home Care to make life better for seniors and their families. We look forward to discussing employment opportunities with you, and advancing your training, skills and career objectives. You can start the process of becoming a caregiver by submitting an application here.

We would just like to say a heartfelt thanks to Connie and Barb for everything they did for Dad. Their patience, understanding and the extra effort they put in really made a huge difference to Dad in his last year. It gave us peace of mind to know that Dad had them checking in and helping him with anything he needed.

It was important to us that Dad’s carers got to know him, along with all his mannerisms and habits, and we really appreciate the consistency, support and respect provided by Aquamarine.

Thank you.

My sister Sandy and I would like to thank you for all your hard work organising carers for my Dad (Ken) over the last week. The administrative staff have been readily available, responsive, efficient, courteous and friendly. The carers have been excellent – friendly, flexible, professional, supportive and caring. It has made a big difference to Sandy and I to know Dad has been safe in their care. We will have no hesitation in recommending your service to others.

Dear Brian,

You and your team looked after my grandmother Joyce.

She was receiving home support services through Care Connect and Aquamarine.

I am writing to personally thank you for your outstanding services and in particular to commend your staff member Sonia who was Joyce’s assigned carer.

My grandmother has been receiving at home service for quite a few years now and has had numerous providers and careers in the past, but not have come close to the level of care provided by your company and Sonia.

Sonia really has been a shining light for Joyce, in what has been a tumultuous and challenging time.

I love my grandmother, but in all honesty, she can be an extremely challenging person to get along with. However, to my astonishment, Sonia’s patience, kindness and good humour allowed her to quickly win Joyce over, to the point where my grandmother is very fond of Sonia. This is a first and unprecedented for my grandmother in terms of care workers and is a testament to Sonia as a person and a professional (and in turn Aquamarine).

As you may be aware my grandmother has now transitioned to an aged care facility (needing a higher level of care), and I can honestly say without Sonia’s help this would have been much more difficult ad traumatic for my grandmother.

Sonia went above and beyond in the transition. I strongly believe that this kind of situation demonstrates the true spirit of what health care and aged care, in particular, should be and is a testament to your company and Sonia.

I’m sure you have had or will receive commendations and glowing reports for Sonia regularly, but again thank you very much for everything Aquamarine and Sonia have done for my grandmother over the past 12 months.

I would not hesitate to recommend your companies services to others and would be more than happy to provide Sonia with any kind of reference (not that she needs one). Again thank you for everything.

Kind Regards, sincerest thanks, and best wishes,

Mr Baldwin

I would like to say thank you for sending me help from Aquamarine Home Care. I was lucky enough to have help with my showering – and some days cleaning as well. The helper I would like to congratulate them on in employing is Wendy.

I had a few girls help me before Wendy arrived at my door. The day she arrived made me happy. Wendy was really good at her job and had what I would call heart and compassion for her clients. I hope they never lose her. Wendy is an absolute gem with all the right qualities to be a carer.

I had not realised how incapacitated I would be – and thank you all for realizing my plight.

You have to be congratulated for doing a wonderful job. May god bless you all.

Regards

“Carmel and I have had home help for over 10 years now and the standard of ladies that Aquamarine Personalised Home Care has working for them is far better than we have experienced to date. Please convey to Aquamarine my appreciation for the quality and standard of ladies they have so far sent to help me with home help”

Mrs Dacosta called and said that her services are going well and the girls from Aquamarine have been wonderful.

Thelma said, “I’ve been quite reliant on the carers actually because I’ve been housebound”.

Thelma would like to thank the carers who have been assisting her and is really happy with the support she has been receiving.

Just wanted to pass on some very positive feedback from Julie ( Elie’s Daughter )

She said the help has been amazing and all the staff have been very lovely and caring. It was a big thing for Elie to have people coming into her home but she has felt very comfortable with your staff – thank you very much for making this such a positive experience.

I wish to thank you and your team for the support you have given me during the last four weeks at home after my hip replacement and hospitalisation. I felt supported by your phone communication organising my transport from rehab in Ballina back home and later to doctor’s appointments. Also for the delivery and collection of hygiene equipment supplied for those crucial first weeks.

In particular, I want to thank you for sending Stephanie to help with my housework and because I could not drive until my sixth week after the operation, taking me out shopping. She was generous with her time, did everything without having to be told, made the house gleam like it was brand new. In fact better than I do it myself. She is an excellent driver and helped me get into and out of her vehicle, with my snail-like movements, with patience and consideration.

But the best thing was her kind, friendly personality and her intelligence. She did not have to be asked to do anything. She made suggestions, saw what was required and just did it before I even asked. Every time she left, I felt uplifted and nurtured for the rest of the day.

I just had a call from Donald at Pottsville who is "over the moon" with the services he received this morning from one of your workers.

He said he couldn’t have asked for a better person and hopes she can continue to provide his services each fortnight.

He said he can’t thank us enough for sending her to him.
