About the Role

Access Life Care is seeking compassionate and dedicated Disability Support Workers to join our growing team in Canberra. This is a full-time, permanent opportunity with one of the ACT’s trusted registered NDIS providers, committed to delivering person-centred, high-quality support to individuals living with disability.

You will work alongside participants in their homes, in our Supported Independent Living (SIL) facilities, and out in the community — helping them to live independently, pursue their goals, and engage meaningfully in everyday life.

This role operates across a rotating roster, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, to meet the 24/7 support needs of our participants.

What We Offer

Competitive salary of $80,000 – $85,000 per annum plus superannuation
Permanent, full-time employment with a growing and stable NDIS provider
Ongoing professional development, training, and upskilling opportunities
Supportive, culturally sensitive and inclusive team environment
Meaningful work that genuinely improves participants’ quality of life
24/7 on-call management support for all staff
Clear career progression pathways within the organisation

Responsibilities

Supporting participants with daily activities including mobility assistance, personal care, medication management, housekeeping tasks, and meal preparation
Engaging with participants and their families to discuss, negotiate and agree on the nature and scope of care and support to be delivered
Providing emotional support and assisting participants in managing challenges such as low mood, confusion, and grief
Identifying and facilitating community-based social, recreational, and cultural activities appropriate to each participant’s interests and NDIS plan goals
Helping participants understand and access the disability support services available to them under the NDIS
Supporting participants in pursuing training and employment goals as part of their individual support plan
Recognising, managing, and responding to risks and emergency situations within a home care environment
Maintaining accurate and timely records including daily progress notes, incident reports, and care plan documentation

What We Are Looking For

Essential:

Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability), Community Services, or a related field.
Candidates must demonstrate at least one to two years of practical experience in a disability support role or a related field within the health, aged care, or community services sector
Current NDIS Worker Screening Check (or willingness to obtain prior to commencement)
Valid Working with Vulnerable People (WWVP) registration in the ACT
Current First Aid and CPR certificate (HLTAID011 or equivalent)
Current Australian driver’s licence and access to a reliable, comprehensively insured vehicle
Strong communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills
Genuine empathy, patience, and a commitment to upholding the rights and dignity of people with disability

Desirable:

Familiarity with the NDIS framework, Practice Standards, and the NDIS Code of Conduct
Experience with medication administration and personal care procedures
Proficiency in delivering services to culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities
Experience supporting participants with psychosocial disability, acquired brain injury (ABI), or complex/high-intensity support needs.

Our services include Supported Independent Living (SIL), Short-Term Accommodation (STA), In-Home Support, High-Intensity Personal Care, Nursing Care, Day Programs, Social and Community Participation, Behaviour Support, Occupational Therapy, Psychosocial Recovery Coaching, and Life Skills Development.
