Description
Ready to work for a disability provider that values skill, professionalism and quality support?
Are you an experienced Disability Support Worker who is confident supporting people with
complex and high-care needs
?
We are looking for skilled, compassionate support workers who are genuinely interested in working with participants requiring a higher level of support, including people living with:
Late-stage Parkinson's disease
Dementia
Huntington's disease
Complex physical and personal care needs
Behaviours of concern
Changing cognitive, communication and mobility needs
This role requires more than simply having experience in disability support.
We are specifically looking for workers who are
calm, capable and confident in complex environments
and understand how to provide respectful, person-centred support when a participant's needs can change throughout a shift.
We'd love to hear from you if you:
Have demonstrated experience supporting people with complex disabilities, dementia, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease or similar high-care needs
Are confident with personal care, mobility assistance and activities of daily living
Understand positive behaviour support and can respond calmly to behaviours of concern
Can recognise changes in a participant's presentation and communicate concerns appropriately
Work well as part of a team and provide clear, accurate handovers
Are reliable, emotionally resilient and able to remain composed in challenging situations
Believe dignity,



choice and quality of life remain central to care regardless of the complexity of a person's disability
Relevant disability, aged-care, health or community-services qualifications and experience will be highly regarded.
Why this role?
For the right support worker, complex care is incredibly rewarding.
You will have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, become familiar with the individual needs of the people you support and make a genuine difference to their comfort, dignity, independence and quality of life.
If complex support is where your skills are strongest, we want to hear from you.
