Disability support workers work with individuals who require additional assistance with daily activities, household chores, social participation, independence, and mental health. They provide emotional support to their participants and frequently form close friendships with them. Disability support services may be provided at the client’s residence or in specialised care settings.
SupportNest is fortunate to have so many passionate, caring, and devoted support workers.Not only are support workers an integral part of people’s lives at home, but also when they are out and about in the community. At SupportNest, we try to pair individuals with support workers who share similar interests so that both parties can maximise their time together. But shared interests are not the only thing that binds our support staff to the individuals they assist. Our support staff is there throughout the lives of those we care for – through every up and down, challenge and achievement, becoming an integral part of their lives.
When someone says something like that, they are frequently exaggerating. Support workers, on the other hand, enable people with disabilities to live independently and fully participate in their communities. Here at SupportNest, they are our heroes.
