EXPERIENCE: Having successfully completed my Certificate III in Individual Support, I have been employed as a support worker for the past year. This role has provided me with immense satisfaction as I assist individuals in their daily activities, ensuring that their rights and dignity are respected while also infusing a sense of enjoyment into our interactions. My experience encompasses a diverse array of clients, each with unique needs, personalities, and interests. These needs range from conditions such as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Depression, and Anxiety to Autism, Schizophrenia, Spina Bifida, various muscle and joint disorders, as well as learning and developmental challenges. I provide support to these clients both in their homes, assisting with daily living tasks, and in the community, where we engage in enjoyable activities together.
