  • Engagement in education
  • Improved health and hygiene
  • Working within organisational policies, procedures, and values, and contributing to the continual improvement of Safe Places services

  • Ability to do shift work and in-home sleepovers

  • Ability to accommodate roster changes and on call requirements at short notice. We endeavour to complete rosters up to two weeks in advance, though changes may occur due to the nature of the work.
