Often dealing with competing interests, she has been quite effective in finding that “common ground” and an successful solution for all.
Like many other families she has recently experienced the troubles of finding compassionate care for an aging loved one. Navigating this often-difficult process has inspired Amanda to find her new role here at Home Instead.

Prabhdeep Tiwana, Recruitment and Retention Coordinator
My passion for helping people with dignity and empathy can be traced back to my pre professional days when I was living with my grandparents and was involved in doing small charities. Having graduated in Human Resources I began my career in working as the management for the food service industry. I joined Home Instead as the Recruitment and Retention Coordinator because I am passionate about building strong relationships with our CAREGiver’s and clients and bringing smiles to everyone’s face. I believe elderly have a wealth of knowledge to share and helping them become more independent makes me feel very happy.
With the experience of working as a healthcare professional back home I realised that human relation is the strongest and most genuine relation we could have. I have faith that I can bring a more creative and innovative perspective to my work. Learning for me is never ending. I am seeking to learn something new every single day. I like spending time reading and writing. I am thrilled to be part of the team and very much excited to work on meaningful projects.
