Full job descriptionBe the reason someone feels seen and supported to live independently in their own home!

Intereach is looking for a Community Support Worker (Home Care) to join our team in Maryborough. This is a permanent part-time position (minimum 15 hours per week) based onsite, supporting people to maintain their independence, wellbeing and connection to their community.

Importantly, this role supports both older people accessing aged care services and younger people who are eligible for the Home and Community Care Program for Younger People (HACC/PYP). Applicants should understand that the role is not limited to working with older people. You may support younger people living with disability, chronic health conditions or other support needs to remain independent and actively participate in their communities.

In this rewarding role, you'll provide person-centred support tailored to each person's individual circumstances, goals and support needs, helping them live safely, comfortably and as independently as possible in their own homes.

• Personal care services
• Social support and community engagement
• Meal preparation assistance
• Support with recreational and social activities
• Encouraging independence through a reablement and wellness approach
• Reporting on participant wellbeing and progress
• Maintaining accurate participant records and documentation

You may work with people from different age groups, including older people receiving aged care services and younger people accessing support through HACC/PYP. This requires a flexible, person-centred approach that recognises individual strengths, abilities, preferences and goals, regardless of age or support needs.

Your work will help people maintain their independence, build confidence, stay connected to their communities and continue living in their own homes.
