Community Carer

Kare Plan is a family-owned company, and we pride ourselves on having great communication between care and office staff members. Our Receptionist, Client Care Co-Ordinator, Client Care Managers, HR, and Recruitment staff are always here to help, so our carers are comfortable knowing that we are available to answer any questions or concerns they have. We have ongoing activities throughout the year for all staff to participate, to build a better bond among work colleagues. At Kare Plan, we love to motivate our employees by encouraging carer development, as we do internal hiring for roles such as Rapid Responder and office opportunities. We also provide state-of-the-art training with tools such as our Age simulation suit to gain further insight and experience in how our clients might be feeling when doing daily tasks such as making a cup of tea or getting ready in the morning. We also have our Geriatric patient care manikin which helps with learning patient care such as pad changes and patient moving and handling. We provide a wide range of training for our carers from Stoma and Catheter care, Dementia and Alzheimer’s care, Patient moving and handling, and infection and prevention control. With this training, we ensure that all of our carers are fully confident and comfortable providing the best care possible to all of our clients. Here at Kare Plan, we have a mission: our mission is to provide the best training and support possible for all staff to ensure that our clients feel that we are more than a home care company, but that we are one big family who care!
