Hours Per Week: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 8am – 8pm (No weekends required)
Vacancy Type: Permanent
Job Reference: SOLOSAL
About the Role
I am a young man in my early 20’s with complex care needs. I use a powered wheelchair to move around, but my disability and care needs don’t stop me from having a fantastic sense of humour and a wonderful quality of life. I live at home with my family and our pet dog, Oscar, and it’s really important that you enjoy being a part of all the above activities and bring a sense of fun and humour to the role.
About You
You will be required to assist me with all aspects of my personal care as well as supporting me with the administration of my medication, my moving and handling needs – including all transfers and regular repositioning during the night. I will also require support with my ventilation and suctioning needs as required. Car drivers with a full, clean driving licence are essential as I require support to access the community, and candidates must meet the requirements for motor insurance purposes to drive my vehicle.
