The county-wide event is part of a nationwide recruitment initiative aimed at expanding the company’s professional care team to meet the growing need for a diverse range of high-quality home care supports.

National Hiring Day gives attendees the chance to speak directly with Dovida staff, learn about Caregiver roles, explore available job opportunities, and receive guidance on training and career progression. The event is free to attend and open to people of all backgrounds, whether they’re new to the sector or an experienced professional.

“This is a unique chance to learn more about us, our values, and the excellent career paths we offer in caregiving and beyond,” Dovida Mayo General Manager, Frances Maloney, said.

“So, whether you’re new to caregiving or an experienced professional, we’d love to meet you on the day to discuss whether a career in care is right for you,” she added.

Dovida Caregivers provide a range of vital services that empower people in their community to remain living as independently as possible in their own homes. Whether assisting an older person who needs some help around the house or supporting someone who has a disability to attend events in the community, Dovida Caregivers are there.

Dovida offers both full and part-time positions as well as flexible hours in the mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends, allowing Caregivers to fit their work into their lives and balance it with other commitments, such as family life, community activities or study.

The company also provides comprehensive training and support, as well as opportunities for personal and professional development.

“People who need support from Dovida want to maintain autonomy over their life, to experience belonging, pursue happiness and find purpose. Our Caregivers are key to ensuring that as many people as possible can do just that,” Frances Maloney concluded.
