Like all of us, the people we support need to do the things they enjoy. You will work closely with them to help integrate into the community and build essential life skills.
• Daily living skills. Appointments, shopping, cooking and cleaning can be challenging, so you’ll be on hand to support and encourage them.
• Safeguarding. As their Relief Support Worker, you’ll ensure their rights are upheld and they are being treated with consideration and respect.
