I was a Volunteer.
I helped with picking up Clients, a mix of elderly and Disabled.
We would have morning tea at the centre, and then quite often go out somewhere for lunch, and come back to the centre before taking the Clients home.
Due to a company restructure, I and other Volunteers are no longer required.

Poor work / life balance I did get my certificate 3 in Aged Care & Disabilty though I also enjoyed working with clients. The downfall was not enough time with family

I would recommend working for Centacare, they were really professional and made sure I was well trained and felt confident in the job before sending me out to work in the community.

This company was not a place I personally enjoyed working. the other staff were great and the clients too. I left and found a new job I enjoyed a lot more and that is all I will say.
Was great working with clients and other workers. Felt unsupported and bullied by management. Unrealistic expectations on workers. Continual funding issues so no job security.
Pros
Clients and other workers
Cons
Culture of bullying
Terrible back stabbing staff judgemental and smiling assasins
They smile and stab you in the back
Put clients at risk of harm
Dont question the manager or youll be sacked

Pros
Clients
Cons
Manager
This is a great organisation to work for. Most of the staff create a warm and friendly environment. The managers are caring and flexible. The salary sacrifice option is rewarding.
Pros
Salary sacrifice
Working along side of clients could be very challenging, however in saying this absolutely rewarding.
I learned appreciating my life and assisting those that were not so fortunate for what ever the circumstance in their lives at present I was there to support, assist and most importantly to empower all persons from different walks of life.
I believe upper management was not always client focused.
Continuity for funding or lack of it, is a large part of the role.
Working alongside of clients to empower, support and assist.
Empowering others to make informed decisions and positive choices in their lives.
