What are the benefits of working within aged care?

Working in aged care is such a rewarding area of healthcare. There is such a high demand for aged care workers due to an ageing population which will only increase with time. During 2019-2020, over 1 million people received aged care services in Australia. This indicates that the chance of finding a job in this area is high, also making it easier to find a job opportunity that suits your specific lifestyle. There are various career pathways to pursue in aged care. Many people begin as aged care workers and may continue on to complete further studies to become team leaders, nurses, lifestyle managers, clinical educators, business managers etc. You get to decide how far you take it!

There is more flexibility around days and hours that are worked in aged care, compared to a typical hospital job, allowing for a healthier work-life balance. There is often also consistency, such as working all mornings or all afternoons, and even some Monday to Friday work, freeing up your weekends if they are important to you. Your qualifications will also enable you to work anywhere in Australia so it’s easy to move around and continue working.

Working in aged care, you are surrounded by people from all walks of life, creating such a rewarding working environment and the opportunity for never-ending learning experiences.

If you want a rewarding and fulfilling career in health that can adhere to a busy life schedule, aged care is a great option that won’t give the mindset of it’s ‘just a job’ every time you leave your shift for the day. Working in aged care doesn’t come without challenges, however it offers many great benefits other healthcare jobs may not, with not only the opportunity to positively influence people’s lives, but also ensuring your career is meaningful and allows for a great work-life balance.
