Wollongong City Council, Australia integratedliving Australia Ltd Full time

Overview

A Day in the Life of a Support Worker

7:30 AM – Coffee in hand, ready to start the shift. If plans change, I’m quickly reassigned to another client for a Personal care & Medication assist shift. Flexibility is part of the day.

8:00 AM – I arrive at the client’s home, assist with showering and dressing, and provide support with medication as part of the morning routine.

8:30 AM – After morning routines, I travel to two more personal care visits. I continue with tasks and support as needed.

11:00 AM – 1 PM – After completing personal care shifts, I provide domestic assistance (bed making, vacuuming, mopping, ironing, cooking, cleaning the kitchen and bathroom) for the next client. I engage with the client and begin tasks efficiently.

1 PM – I continue to the last client for grocery shopping, planning meals, and assistance with shopping. I assist with selecting items and share conversations along the way.

3:30 PM – Deliver groceries, ensure the home is organized, and conclude the day with client goodbyes. I log notes in the system after each visit using mobile apps for a clear record on the way home.

Why This Job is the Best Kind of Adventure

There is domestic assistance (light cleaning) involved, and the work can feel repetitive, but no two days are the same. You build real connections, become part of someone’s story, and help clients achieve things that matter to them. A two-hour shift can make a meaningful difference in someone’s day.

What You/'ll Bring:

- Passion for Helping: A genuine interest in supporting clients and making their lives better.

- Qualifications: Qualified Support Worker with a Certificate III in Individual Support, Aged Care, or equivalent.

- Must-Haves: A driver’s license, reliable car, comprehensive insurance, WWCC and First Aid/CPR (or willingness to obtain).

- Tech-Friendly: Comfortable using smartphones and tablets.
