People have called you all sorts of names. Authentic. Fun. Genuine. Brilliant. Approachable. A bit cheeky. Helpful. Caring. Lovely. Relentless.

In your spare time we’re likely to find you daydreaming about ways to create an impact on people’s lives.

You are a great communicator and conduct assessments focusing on the capacity of an older person.

A diploma or higher-level qualification is highly regarded.

About ACNA

Our charter says…

Access Care Network Australia provides assessment, coordination and case management services to connect eligible people with supports that build on their strengths.

We're in business to change lives. 

We do that by helping clients (and their families) get the support they need to live life their way. 

What does it take to do what we do?

3 things. People. People and people.

We hire only in the words of clients – “amazing beautiful souls” and never break that rule. We hire when we are confident people have what it takes to make a difference. Think you do? Then join us!

We love all ages and life stages. If you need a little flexibility and want to be part of a team that bubbles with life experiences, that’s us!

We measure success in people, not data points. Data points don’t capture the life-changing impact of an assessment that gives a daughter’s 92-year-old father the renewed confidence to live independently. We get a front row seat to these amazing client stories that remind us why we’re here.

What makes us tick?

We want people to be their best.

This isn’t something we write on a poster: ‘being our best’ is our way of life. It’s a life-long personal commitment to be…

Always learning

Always growing

Always sharing
