Hi, my name is Leanne, I am 51, I am a smoker and I have a cat. I am an NDIS participant, and I am looking for an Independent Support Worker to assist me with domestic tasks, gardening, scrapbooking, cooking, social outings and caring for my cat (when she needs to be wormed or to visit the vet). I also require assistance with some personal care and hydrotherapy (you will be trained in how to support me). Experience is not required as you will be trained in all aspects of the position. However, hoisting experience will be highly regarded.

All shifts are 4 hours but can be extended upon agreement. I also have a “Call Out” arrangement with my support workers for those times when I do not have in-home support, to assist me (Day or Night). This arrangement is on an as-needed basis. This is also a requirement of the position.
