Are you looking to make a real difference in your community? We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers to work within and across our Community Services. If you are looking for flexibility around other commitments, we have 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.

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.
