Lifestyle Coordination- elevated support worker acting as backup Support Co.Service Offerings:

• Lifestyle Coordination:

Hybrid- Non Face-to-Face / Face-to-Face-- Clients charged SW rates (Core)-- $67.56 p/h

You can think of this role as a kind of backup Support Coordinator, but with a focus on the week-to-week tasks rather than the big-picture accounting and financial planning that most SCs only have time for. The main issue I’ve come across in the NDIS world is that Clients either don’t have enough SC hours, or their SC is simply overworked. For Self-Managed Clients, this LC role can take a load off the Parent/Guardian, giving them more time to actually be that Parent/Guardian figure.

Lifestyle Coordination helps ease the strain of the system and provides Clients with an active advocate to support their choice and control every step of the way.

Responsibilities (include, not limited to):

--> Provide face-to-face support to clients and assist with lifestyle planning, accommodation, and personal budgeting.

--> Recruit, roster, train, fill last min shift cancellations, and oversee support staff, ensuring effective communication through regular check-ins and team meetings.

--> Liaise with family, specialists, support coordinator(s), and flatmates to ensure seamless support and coordination.

--> Manage accommodation logistics, including leases, house repairs, and flatmate searches (if applicable)

--> Support clients in work or volunteer opportunities and assist with scheduling appointments.

--> Offer problem-solving and guidance for resolving interpersonal or support-related challenges.
