Hammill House Aged Care — where compassionate aged
care meets opportunity in Regional South Australia

WHERE YOU’LL BE AND WHAT YOU’LL DO

Hammill House Residential Aged Care Facility is located in Port Pirie, 223 kilometres north of Adelaide. Known as the City of Opportunity, Port Pirie is a vibrant regional centre offering major retail, tourism, arts, and sporting events. Set between the Southern Flinders Ranges and the Spencer Gulf, the city provides a stunning lifestyle where rolling hills meet beautiful coastline, with easy access to some of the region’s most diverse and scenic hiking trails.

Hammill House is a compassionate, person-centred residential aged care service providing comprehensive care for older people. Led by a dedicated, highly skilled, and values-driven leadership team, the facility delivers individualised care that supports wellbeing, dignity, and quality of life, aligned with each resident’s personal care goals.

With a strong focus on partnership in care, residents are supported to remain active participants in decision-making, ensuring their needs, choices, and preferences are always respected.

Working at Hammill House, you’ll join a professional and supportive team committed to excellence, transparency, and a positive workplace culture. The facility provides 24/7 onsite Registered Nurse coverage and actively supports ongoing professional development. You’ll contribute to an environment built on respect, dignity, and meaningful connection, while being encouraged to share feedback, support innovation, and participate in continuous improvement.

This is an outstanding opportunity to be part of a dedicated, progressive, and values-driven team focused on care, compassion, and excellence—within a regional community where people truly are at the heart of everything you do.
