About Guide Healthcare

We’re a passionate Allied Health team with chihuahua-level enthusiasm (officially endorsed by Sammy, our office puppy). We believe work should actually feel good, where creativity is encouraged, individuality is celebrated, and every day looks a little different.

At Guide Healthcare, we do things differently. Since 2018, we’ve been shaking up traditional models, backing bold ideas, and building a workplace people genuinely want to be part of. We’re proud to support older adults and people with disabilities through programs that are fun, meaningful, and genuinely impactful.

Allied health is our core, but we’re always looking for new ways to add value, for our clients, our partners, and our team.

About the Role

This isn’t your average aged care physio role.

Whether you’re experienced in aged care or have been curious to step into the sector, this role offers real diversity; blending a community-style approach within an aged care home. You’ll support clients to build strength, mobility and confidence so they can live their most independent, joyful lives across aged care, home care and disability settings. No two days look the same, and you’ll have the freedom to be creative, backed by a supportive team that keeps everything running smoothly.

You’ll deliver three structured components of the Physiotherapy service for our aged care partner in this role:

1. Assessment and Care Planning
   Complete core clinical tasks such as assessments, reviews, referrals, meetings (HOD/MDT/case conferences) and staff education, as part of the multidisciplinary team on site.
2. Deliver Manual Handling Training

3. Wellness and Reablement Programs
   Flexible hours to deliver individually tailored  wellness and reablement  programs aligned with each resident’s goals and needs. Our innovative suite of wellness and reablement programs (funded under HELF) have been pre-designed by our expert Clinical Team, it will be your role to identify potential participants, enhance uptake, and work with the on-site and Guide’s clinical and admissions team to build a comprehensive offering within your home.

Home Care Visits are also a core part of this role to support clients living in the community, delivering evidence based 1:1 rehab sessions.
