Supporting residents with physical, intellectual, psychosocial, social or emotional disabilities in a safe, respectful and stable residential environment.
Responding appropriately to incidents, risks, behavioural concerns and safeguarding matters in accordance with Access Lifecare policies and NDIS requirements.
Ensuring support is delivered in accordance with participant NDIS plans, Access Lifecare procedures, NDIS Practice Standards, privacy obligations, WHS requirements and relevant legislation.

What We’re Looking For

The successful applicant should have:

A Diploma in Community Services, Disability, Residential Care or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
At least one year of experience in residential care, disability support, supported accommodation, SIL services or community services.
Experience supporting people with physical, intellectual, psychosocial, social or emotional disabilities.
Strong communication, documentation and reporting skills.
Understanding of NDIS service delivery, participant dignity, choice and control, safeguarding and person-centred practice.
Ability to work respectfully and professionally with residents, families, carers and support professionals.
Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a supported residential care environment.
Current Driver’s Licence and reliable vehicle.
NDIS Worker Screening Check, National Police Check and Working with Vulnerable People Registration, or ability to obtain them.
First Aid and Manual Handling certificates, or willingness to obtain them.
