You might not know this, but the Aged Care sector is one of Australia’s largest employment industries – and there is so much you could get involved in!
Infinite Care are leaders in the industry and keen to show you just what a career with them in aged care could look like (hint: it’s WAY different from what many people think).
Keep reading to learn more about this vital and growing industry and how Infinity Care can help you get started with a lifelong, rewarding career.
What Does the Aged Care Sector in Australia Look Like?
The Aged Care and Social Assistance industry is the largest employing industry in Australia. In 2020, over 1.7 million people were employed in the sector, and this is projected to increase to more than 1.9 million by 2024. This growth is attributed to an ageing population and growing home and community-based care demand.
Careers in the sector range from being highly specialised, such as Anaesthetists, Optometrists and Physiotherapists, to skills such as Clinical Nurses and Psychologists, to entry-level such as Personal Care Workers, Aged Care Workers, and Administrators.
You’ll often work as part of a multidisciplinary team with other healthcare professionals, such as doctors, therapists and social workers, and liaise closely with patients’ families and/or carers.
