True Direction Supports is looking for a small team of reliable and caring female support workers to support a 19-year-old young man in Belrose.
The regular shifts are 3:00pm–6:00pm Monday to Friday, with the opportunity for additional hours supporting other TDS participants for the right person.
He is non-verbal and has complex support needs, so we’re looking for someone patient and observant who will take the time to get to know him, understand his communication cues and become a familiar and consistent part of his routine.
The role includes
Picking him up from his day program and driving him home
Supporting his afternoon routine, meals and activities
Full personal care including showering, dressing and continence care
Mobility and wheelchair support when required
Monitoring and responding appropriately to absence seizures
Learning to recognise his individual signs of pain, discomfort or distress
Working closely with his family and following established routines
Who we’re looking for
Someone who is calm, caring, reliable and genuinely attentive.
Experience with complex disability, personal care, non-verbal communication or seizures is highly regarded, but finding the right person is equally important.
You will need to be comfortable providing full personal care, confident driving and able to commit consistently to regular afternoon shifts.
Applicants living within approximately 20km of Belrose are preferred due to the short shifts and importance of reliable day-program collection.
Relevant NDIS worker requirements/checks and a current driver’s licence are required.
To apply
Please send through your resume and a short introduction including your suburb, relevant experience and which weekdays you are regularly available from 3:00pm–6:00pm.
We’re looking for people who want to build genuine, consistent working relationships with the people they support and become part of a growing team at True Direction Supports.
