Christchurch, New Zealand Healthcare of New Zealand Full time

**NZCare Disability**

NZCare Disability is part of Healthcare NZ limited and provides services to people with disabilities across New Zealand; our aim being to maximise the independence and quality of life of the people we support.

We are looking for Support Workers to help the people we support in our Te Awamutu residential services. This role is for part time wakeover shifts with one afternoon shift per fortnight. You will have one weekend off a fortnight, so this will suit people who may have commitments during the day or who are looking more regular longer shifts in one place.

**What does a Support Worker do?**

Our support workers assist people who access our services to live as independently as possible, in their community. Support workers are part of a team who work shifts or specific rosters providing 24/7 cover with responsibilities including aiding with personal care, community outings and integration, and other aspects of daily living - enabling our clients to be as independent as possible.

You will be somebody who really thrives off helping others and who is committed to upholding high standards of care. Empathy, respect, and cultural awareness is important in this role as the people we support come from diverse backgrounds with varying needs and interests.

**What's in it for you?**

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 and offer a starting rate of $22.49 per hour, with the opportunity to progress once you have completed our fully funded NZQA training and qualifications.

**What are we looking for?**
- A desire to support our people to learn new skills and achieve outcomes
- Prior experience supporting others with aspects of daily living, preferably those living with intellectual or physical disabilities
- Full driver's license and confidence to safely transport passengers in our disability vans (training provided)
- Flexibility to work overnight shifts across a roster, including weekends

At Healthcare NZ, we're passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity, and reflects the communities we serve. If you are passionate about providing support to a wide range of people and think you would like a career with NZCare, then we would like to hear from you
