Description

Where Does Your Experience Fit?

🔹 Complex Behaviours & Mental Health

Supporting participants with mental health challenges, neurodevelopmental conditions, intellectual impairments and trauma-related behaviours.

Experience valued: complex behaviours • self-harm • verbal and physical aggression • mental health • de-escalation • PBSP • Restrictive Practices • strong professional boundaries

🔹 High Medical & Physical Support

Providing hands-on, person-centred support to NDIS participants with significant physical, personal care and health support needs.

Experience valued: non-verbal communication • epilepsy & seizure management • PEG feeding • hoisting • manual handling • continence care • personal care

🔹 Child & Youth Support

Supporting children and young people with disabilities and complex behaviours, with a focus on safety, consistency, trust and positive relationships.

Experience valued: residential care • youth work • child safety • complex behaviours • trauma-informed care • strong professional boundaries

What Could Your Day Look Like?

No two days are the same. You could be supporting a participant with their personal care and daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with medication, heading out into the community, or helping them work towards greater independence. You’ll also keep clear shift notes and incident reports to ensure consistent, high-quality support.

Depending on the role, you may work alongside a supportive team in a SIL environment or provide one-on-one support, building a genuine connection with the participant and making a meaningful difference in their day.
