Disability Support Worker

Supporting a super cool and dynamic Client, with complex challenges. These challenges require 24/7 support with active overnight supports.

This awesome lady requires emotional and physical supports, assistance with making meals and eating, personal cares, domestic assistance and community access.

We need people who are sympathetic to varying challenges and physical limitations and in deescalating situations of anxiety and distress and those who are not adverse to hard work; who are resilient and can manage challenging situations with grace, patience, understanding and compassion. It's not all on you though, as you will have support in this. She also needs people who are passionate in doing with, not doing for.

The ideal Support Worker is someone who is bubbly, outgoing, supportive with an artistic or creative mind is also of benefit as our Client is a very creative person who loves to tinker and work out life puzzles.
- experience we can teach.
