Job no: 857320
Work type: Casual
Location: Murray and Mallee
Categories: Community and Social Services, Child, Aged and Disability Care

  • Riverland Mallee Coorong Local Health Network, Lameroo

  • Casual Contracts available up to 14 February 2025

Overview

We are now accepting applications for Community Home Helpers to join our dynamic team in providing timely, efficient and effective service delivery to the local community.

Riverland Mallee Coorong Local Health Network (RMCLHN) has moved to a Consumer Directed Care model for the provision of aged care, disability and support services. This allows consumers to maintain greater control over their lives by allowing them to make choices about the services they receive and who delivers those services. Consumers are encouraged to actively participate in identifying and setting goals, and to determine what level of involvement they want in managing their own living arrangements.

Under this model of care, the funding associated with the role of the Home Helper is controlled by consumers, rather than by the health provider. This means that consumers have an active role in determining the shifts that are available, the duties that are performed, the frequency of demand for the service, and the choice of provider organisation.

The Home Helper is integral to supporting this model of care by providing timely, efficient and effective service delivery. Duties may include the preparation and service of meals, general housekeeping cleaning and laundry duties to persons who are aged, frail or disabled in order to maintain their homes at a standard of cleanliness and hygiene that is compatible with them remaining in their homes.

Home Helpers need to be flexible, conscientious and empathetic and be able to work autonomously in the community. They will work closely and collaboratively with the consumer, their family and other health professionals, to provide quality outcomes and maintain consumer independence where possible.

Please refer to the job pack below for more details.
