The Reimagined Personal Care Worker Discussion Paper

The Reimagined Personal Care Worker discussion paper was prepared by the Centre for Workforce Futures at Macquarie University and SkillsIQ Limited.

The paper asked questions of stakeholders framed around three key areas:

  • The breadth of care recipients’ needs
  • The range and complexity of the skills and capabilities required to meet those needs
  • The extent to which an individual worker can meet those needs versus the scope of the role as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
