As a Mental Health Worker, you’ll support people experiencing mental health challenges to improve their wellbeing, build independence, and connect with community supports. You’ll walk alongside individuals on their recovery journey—offering practical help, emotional support, and pathways to long-term stability.

You’ll work across two support streams:

• Intensive Crisis Support (ICS) – short-term, high-intensity support to reduce distress and manage immediate challenges.
• Non-Acute Psychosocial Support (NAPS) – longer-term support to build resilience, explore NDIS options, and improve quality of life.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide person-centred support through goal setting, recovery planning, and emotional encouragement.
• Help clients access services including health, housing, NDIS, and community supports.
• Support clients through crisis situations with calm, flexible, and trauma-informed care.
• Maintain accurate and confidential client records using electronic systems.
• Build strong relationships with clients, families, carers, and service providers.
• Contribute to a culturally safe, inclusive, and responsive service environment.
