Sunnysights Independent Living are leaders in professional in-home support services for NDIS participants with complex needs. Our talented and dedicated team deliver exceptional care through patience, respect and understanding, tailored to our participants’ interests and needs.

Due to the high demand for our services, we now seek to add Disability Support Workers (Behaviour Support) to our team in Townsend.

What you’ll do

  • Support a female NDIS Participant in their 20's. This involves assisting with prompting and helping them make healthy and informed decisions.

  • Support participants in daily living and assist in the provision of food preparation, eating, dressing, maintenance of personal hygiene, and general household chores
  • Assist participants in attending appointments, and recreational activities and accessing and utilising community resources
  • Maintain interpersonal communications with participants and their families and provide tailored advisory, social and emotional support.

This is no ordinary position and you’re no ordinary person: you’ll be comfortable working with people with complex behaviours who need significant supervision, care and guidance. You excel at maintaining a safe residential environment and are competent in ensuring participant well-being and social support is always maintained. You’ll be a high achiever: strong yet warm, highly organised but with creativity to quickly formulate Plan B when things change…with the emotional intelligence to sensitively interact with participants and their family members.

Applicants are invited to submit a resume of no more than 3 pages, plus a single page cover letter, explaining the skills and experience you’ll bring to us.
