Support Worker

Details of the offer

We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers across our different services including Community & Rehabilitation and Social Services. Whether you are looking for flexibility around other commitments or would prefer regular rostered shifts, we have a variety of permanent (full-time and part-time) and casual options on offer.
What does a Support Worker do?
As part of a wider team, you will assist our clients to live as independently as possible, within their homes and community. You will help our clients to achieve their goals and reach their potential, through both practical and emotional support. Responsibilities can be varied, and you will follow a care plan, which may include some or all of the below:

Meal preparation
Community outings and integration
Giving medication
Personal cares (showering, toileting etc)
Home management - a must
Alternative weekends are a must
May need to travel to surrounding areas

We are committed to our employees and are proud to employ and train the best people in all areas of our organisation. We provide a career pathway for staff through the learning and development framework to achieve NZQA qualifications, which are fully funded. You will earn between $23.23 - $29.10 per hour, depending on experience and qualification.
This is an opportunity to join New Zealand's largest community healthcare provider with the potential to gain experience in a variety of disciplines including aged care, disability, mental health, and rehabilitation. Whilst you will be part of a large national organisation, you will join a dedicated and close-knit team.
What are we looking for?

Attitude - a desire to help and support others, achieving excellence in all you do!
Previous healthcare or care-giving experience is desirable, although not essential
Excellent communication skills
Healthcare qualifications are advantageous.
Most positions require a full New Zealand driver's license and your own reliable transport.
