You'll work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team to ensure the best outcomes for our clients while advocating for their rights and autonomy.

Examples of your job roles include:

  • Deliver personal care with empathy and respect (e.g. showering, dressing, grooming)
  • Support participants with mobility and transfers
  • Assist with meal preparation, feeding, and domestic duties
  • Provide transport and support for community access, appointments, and social activities
  • Build positive, therapeutic relationships through a lens of compassion
  • Accurately document progress, concerns, and changes in presentation
  • Support participants in building daily living skills and confidence
  • Act in alignment with NDIS guidelines and practices whilst on shift

To succeed in this role, you'll need to demonstrate experience in mental health, hold relevant certifications such as a First Aid and CPR certification, WWCC and NDIS Worker Screening Check, and possess a valid driver's license with access to your own car and comprehensive car insurance.
