My name is Stacey, I’m 49 years old and live in Tiwi. I have changed my career from a scientist to become a PCA as I enjoy working with and helping the elderly. My very first job was a tea and tidy in a Brisbane aged care facility and it was highly rewarding. I graduated from the Certificate III in Individual Support ~ Aged Care early June after a four-week placement during May with Southern Cross Care, Pearl. I was trained in all aspects of aged care under the tutelage of highly experienced Personal Care Assistants (PCA) and Enrolled Nurses. I have the life skills and work ethic values to be a highly suitable candidate for a carer position: ~ First Aid Certificate ~ National Crime Check ~ Working with Children (Ochre) card ~ NT Police Check ~ Up-to-date Vaccinations ~ Hand Hygiene Certified I pick up procedures easily and am keen to secure part time or casual hours any day of the week.
