About Discover Nursing Australia:
Discover Nursing Australia is a dedicated service provider committed to empowering individuals living with disability. We aim to deliver person-centred support that is compassionate, respectful, and tailored to the unique needs of each participant. Our team of Disability Support Workers (DSWs) plays a vital role in helping individuals live with dignity, achieve their goals, and participate meaningfully in their communities—whether in their own homes or supported accommodation.

Why Join Us?
We are currently seeking compassionate and committed DSWs to join our growing team in Brisbane, QLD, on a contractual (sole trader/ABN) basis. This model gives you the freedom to manage your schedule, choose the services you want to provide, and earn a higher hourly rate while still being supported by a professional, nurse-led organisation.

  • Competitive hourly rates and transport reimbursements
  • Full flexibility to take breaks or holidays as needed
  • Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance provided
  • Access to a supportive Sydney-based on-call team of qualified Registered Nurses
  • Opportunities for career development, including support to build and manage your own business

Role Details:
  • We regularly offer shifts across various times, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, nights, and public holidays (with relevant penalty rates and allowances)
  • Some roles may require transporting participants to community activities (appointments, shopping, school, etc.). For these, you'll be reimbursed for both travel time and vehicle usage

What You'll Need to Join Us:
  • A registered ABN (easy and free to register under your personal name)
  • Proof of working rights in Australia (e.g., Citizenship, Permanent Residency, or relevant visa)
  • Certificate III in Individual Support or equivalent qualification
  • NDIS Worker Screening Check (NDISWC) – current and valid
  • Current Police Check (issued within the last 3 years)
  • Valid First Aid Certificate (within 3 years) and CPR (within 1 year)
  • Completion of the NDIS Worker Orientation Module – 'Quality, Safety and You' Available here
