The applicants would also have a passion for making a positive difference in the lives of others and enjoy supporting someone to meet their individual goals and dreams.

Support is also required to build safety and risk-management skills and confidence within the home.
There may also be overnight support offered as part of this role.

Other support required:
Prompting support, support with meal time/ utilising the kitchen, what to organise for the day, support with time management & getting organised for appts and daily activities, assistance with accessing the community, support with managing risks/ maintaining safety in the home and in the community, transport training, assistance with networking.
