- Participating in program development and delivery, adhering to the PBSP, promoting data collection and person-centred approaches
- Guide teams in supporting participants with complex support needs, ensuring individual care plans, positive behaviour support strategies and risk management procedures are followed.
- Monitoring and planning for changes in supports, capacity, staffing and participant support needs
- Providing on-call support to programs operating out of business hours as part of a roster and working on site If required
