It is the second time in less than a year that the home care company has looked to take on new workers.
Chief Operating Officer, Shane Jennings, says there is a huge demand for the service:
"Demand in the growing population is what we're all experiencing. I think, on a personal level, we all have loved ones or neighbours in our community that we can see aging and that demand and that increase is happening.
"There's a real need within this sector to care for those individuals."
