Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand Hohepa Canterbury Full time
About Hohepa Canterbury

We are a community leader providing services and support for people living with an intellectual disability to live their best lives and find a valued place in our society.

Our Mission

Inspired by Dr Rudolf Steiner's principles of anthroposophy, we seek to understand each person and situation as unique, not a one-size-fits-all philosophy.

About the Role

We have recently created new roles at Whenua Service, which is a double-staffed service based in Somerfield and is home to three young women in their 20s. They have a variety of interests, including swimming, aqua jogging, and music therapy. They also find comfort in activities like going for drives, shopping, and spending time with horses through Riding for the Disabled (RDA). Additionally, they enjoy enhancing their kitchen skills.

Your Key Responsibilities
  • Supporting individuals with daily routines while encouraging independence to develop skills and personal growth.
  • Supporting with personal cares, cooking, medication administration, and household tasks.
  • Working closely with colleagues to create a great team environment.
Required Skills and Qualifications
  • Self-motivated, energetic, and flexible with a high level of initiative.
  • A kind nature with a can-do attitude and willingness to learn and continue to develop your skills as a support worker.
  • A commitment to upholding the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi in all aspects of the role.
Benefits of Working at Hohepa Canterbury
  • Certainty of hours through fixed rosters.
  • A great person-to-staff ratio, allowing for more personalised support.
  • Opportunities for ongoing support and development.
About You

You will be passionate about supporting and extending people's ability to access and be part of their wider community. If you are looking for a new challenge, this could be the opportunity for you.
