As we continue to grow, several exciting opportunities are available for reliable and motivated Physiotherapist (Senior positions are available) to join our Brightwater At Home team working in our Community Aged Care programs.
There is the capacity for full-time/part-time work opportunities, working Monday to Friday with our clients in the community. The ideal candidate is available to work a minimum of 3 shifts per week.
You will have the ability of self-rostering with flexibility in how you work your contracted hours. Working with clients with TCC, CHSP, and HCP funding. You will work with a mix of clients receiving either Home Care Package or Transitional Care Community package.
