Do you have experience in a Community Support Role? Are you seeking flexible working opportunities in Australia? Bower YNA has a range of roles available with duties including providing high to low level personal care, domestic support, transportation and medication prompting visits for the aged, frail and those living with disabilities in their own homes.
Community Support work offers rewarding and fulfilling employment. Service users require reliable and experienced in-home support, which means there are always opportunities for high-quality, permanent part-time and casual workers available. As a leading healthcare agency, Bower YNA offers Australian residents, overseas workers and working holiday applicants opportunites to work within Community Support roles throughout the Sydney metropolitan area and within all other states via its sister company, YNA.
What are the requirements to work in a Community Support Role?
Requirements:
-
current first aid certificate
-
manual handling (for healthcare) certificate*
-
recent references from previous employment
-
current National Criminal History Record Check*
-
NSW Working with Children Check (for some positions)
-
Access to your own vehicle is highly regarded
* We can assist you to attain these if necessary
Qualifications:
Although not always essential (depending on previous experience), holding a relevant qualification is likely to help in securing a Community Support role. These can include:
-
a Certificate III or IV in Aged Care, Home & Community Care, or Disability
-
a nursing qualification
Experience:
Most of our community support roles require a minimum of three months recent practical experience in a relevant, local environment, which could be in-home care, a nursing home or hospital.
Transport:
Many support jobs require travel between locations, as well as transportation/escort duties with the consumer, so it’s also beneficial to hold a valid drivers licence and have access to a fully insured vehicle.
