Aged Care Worker Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last few years supporting clients in their daily routines, and I’ve found that steady, respectful care makes the biggest difference. At my last role I helped a client with mobility and personal hygiene tasks, keeping care schedules on track for a 12‑week period and ensuring meals and tidy rooms every day. I’m applying for [Company Name] because I value practical, person‑centred support that keeps people safe and independent. I bring hands‑on skills in mobility assistance, dressing and personal care, meal prep and light housekeeping, plus companionship and social activity planning. I’m comfortable with shopping and errands, and I’m used to documenting changes in a calm, clear way for the teams I work with. I’m keen to contribute to a team that values dignity, respect and straightforward communication. In a recent shift, I supported a client through a hospital discharge to home living. I helped with transfer and daily activity accompaniment, prepared meals suited to dietary needs, and arranged a small group activity with neighbours. The client’s routine stabilised over two weeks and carers in the team noted significantly improved mood and engagement, which helped us coordinate care more smoothly. I’m available to discuss how I can fit into the role and support your clients. I can start as soon as needed and am happy to chat about shifts or live‑in arrangements if that’s part of the position. Kind regards, [Your Name]
