Brisbane, Australia Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Community Health Service Brisbane Limited Full time

**Introduction**:
About ATSICHS Brisbane

ATSICHS Brisbane is a not-for-profit community owned health and human services organisation delivering on the unique health and wellbeing needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in greater Brisbane and Logan. We pride ourselves on providing health and human services, our way - supporting our people and community in our commitment to create a flourishing future and lasting legacy for them and their families.

ATSICHS Brisbane is a member of the Institute for Urban Indigenous Health (IUIH).

**Description**:
About the role

As a key member of the ATSICHS Brisbane team, the NDIS Support Worker is expected to personally contribute to the shaping and achievement of ATSICHS vision and goals within their own scope.

The NDIS Support Worker will work with individuals (known as ‘participants’) in partnership to empower and build their agency to make effective change and overcome their identified disability and wellbeing needs. The role is heavily outreach based, engaging participants in their homes, and translating initial engagement into a strong ongoing partnership. Once engaged, the role will support participants in daily living activities and social/community participation. All supports provided are aimed at promoting participant choice and control. Accordingly, a key focus of the role is building the capability of participants, not completing goals/supports transactionally to the participant.

The support we provide is diverse and the NDIS Support Worker will be helping participants in their own homes, within group care homes and assisting them with daily tasks and activities that may include:

- Daily activities, such as getting out for a coffee or catch-up with friends, participating in a hobby or sporting activity, going on day trips or holidays.
- Support with medical appointments and any other support that may contribute to helping them achieve their goals while staying healthy, happy and safe.
- In addition, when required this role will provide relief support as a transport driver for the Early Childhood Department.

Duties
- Meet individual case performance targets as per weekly, monthly and quarterly dashboard system.
- Provide high quality and intent-based practice in all interactions with clients, consistent with the ATSICHS values and vision.
- Provide high quality case management practices and record keeping that adhere to operational requirements.
- Demonstrate positive and warm engagement through an assertive outreach approach that engages clients into the service.

Culture

Enjoy working in an organisation that makes a difference in the community. Join our friendly and supportive Social Health care team that will help you grow personally and professionally.

**Benefits**:

- $29.57 Base hourly rate + casual loading.
- Work for a leading Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, community-controlled organisation.
- Casual role which gives a great work-life balance.

**Skills and Experiences**:
