What Is a Community Support Worker?

A community support worker is a trained professional who provides hands-on support to help people with disabilities live independently and participate fully in their community. We're not just "helpers" – we're partners in your journey toward the life you want to live.

What Community Support Workers Do:

πŸ‘₯ Community Participation Support We accompany you to social activities, events, clubs, and gatherings. Whether it's attending a concert, joining a community group, or meeting friends for coffee – we're there to support you so you can engage confidently.

πŸš— Transport & Mobility Support We provide safe, reliable transport to appointments, shopping, work, social events, or anywhere you need to go. Getting out and about shouldn't be a barrier to living your life.

🀝 Personal Care Assistance Respectful support with showering, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility – helping you start each day with dignity and confidence.

🏠 Daily Living Support Assistance with meal preparation, grocery shopping, light housework, laundry, and managing daily routines. We help you maintain your home and independence.

🎯 Skill Building We don't just do things for you – we support you to build skills and confidence in everyday tasks, encouraging greater independence at your own pace.

πŸ’¬ Companionship & Advocacy Sometimes the most valuable support is simply being there – a listening ear, friendly conversation, and someone who genuinely cares about your wellbeing and goals.

The best community support relationships are built on trust, communication, and respect. You're in control – we're just here to support you along the way.

Your life. Your choices. Your independence. Our support.

Ever wonder what a community support worker actually does all day? Let us show you. πŸ’™

No two days are the same in community support work – and that's what makes it so meaningful. Every day, we're supporting NDIS participants to live independently, build skills, and stay connected to their communities.

This Is What Person-Centred Care Looks Like

Every task, every moment, every interaction is about supporting YOU to live the life you choose. Community support workers don't just "do things for you" – we work alongside you, at your pace, toward your goals.

Whether it's getting to school, managing your home, participating in your community, or building new skills – we're here to make it happen.

Your Day. Your Goals. Our Support.

At Supportr, our community support workers are trained, compassionate, and genuinely committed to helping NDIS participants across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, and surrounding areas live with independence and dignity.

When you need physical assistance, you deserve support that's both safe AND dignified. πŸ’™

At Supportr, we understand that complex physical support requires more than just technical skill – it requires compassion, communication, and genuine respect for the person we're supporting.

What Complex Physical Support Includes:

Complex physical support is for participants who need significant physical assistance with daily activities. This might include:

Transfers (bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to vehicle, chair to toilet)

Positioning and repositioning for comfort and safety

Assistance with personal care tasks that require physical support

Use of mobility equipment like hoists, slide sheets, and transfer boards

Support with mobility and movement throughout the day

Our Approach: Trained AND Compassionate

πŸŽ“ Certified Manual Handling Training Every support worker is trained in safe manual handling techniques to protect both you and our team. We follow best practices and continue updating our skills regularly.

πŸ›‘οΈ Safe Transfer Techniques Your safety is our priority. We use proven methods and take the time to ensure every transfer is done correctly and comfortably.

βš™οΈ Mobility Equipment Expertise From hoists to slide sheets, we're experienced with various mobility aids and know how to use them properly to support you safely.

πŸ’™ Dignity in Every Interaction You're never just a "transfer" or a "task" – you're a person. We communicate clearly, respect your privacy, and ensure you feel comfortable and dignified throughout every interaction.

🀝 Person-Centred Approach We work at your pace, listen to your preferences, and adapt our support to what works best for YOU. Your comfort, your way.

You Deserve Both

Physical support shouldn't mean sacrificing dignity. Safety shouldn't come without compassion. At Supportr, you get both – because that's what quality care looks like.

Vision isn't required for adventure, creativity, or connection. 🌟

Living with vision impairment doesn't mean missing out on meaningful experiences. There are so many engaging activities that celebrate touch, sound, smell, and movement – and we're here to help you access them.

πŸ–οΈ Tactile Art & Sculpture Create and express yourself through clay, textured materials, and sculpting. Art is about feeling and expression, not sight. Let your hands bring your imagination to life.

🧘 Yoga & Meditation Focus on body awareness, breathing, and inner peace through guided yoga and mindfulness practices. These activities promote wellbeing, flexibility, and relaxation for everyone.

🏊 Swimming & Aqua Aerobics Water-based activities are accessible, therapeutic, and perfect for fitness and socialisation. The pool is a space where everyone can move freely and feel supported.

🌿 Sensory Gardens Explore gardens designed with fragrant flowers, textured leaves, herbs you can touch and smell, and soothing sounds of water and wildlife. Nature engages all the senses beautifully.

How Supportr Can Help.

We provide transport and community access support to help you participate in the activities you love. Whether it's getting to an art class, accompanying you to a sensory garden, supporting you at the pool, or helping you try something new – we're here to make it happen.

Your interests matter. Your participation matters. And we're committed to supporting you to engage with your community in ways that are meaningful to YOU.

Today, we celebrate International Day of People with Disability with the theme "Fostering disability inclusive societies for advancing social progress." πŸ’™

This theme reminds us that true progress happens when we create communities where everyone can participate, contribute, and thrive. Inclusion isn't just the right thing to do – it's essential for building a better society for all.

At Supportr, we're honoured to walk alongside NDIS participants every single day, supporting you to live with dignity, independence, and joy. From personal care to community access, transport to daily living support – we're committed to fostering inclusion in every interaction.

Let's continue working together to break down barriers, challenge assumptions, and create the inclusive society we all deserve – today and every day.

Your support worker wants to help you – but they need to know what you need. πŸ’¬

Good communication is the foundation of great support. When you can clearly express your preferences, boundaries, and goals, you get services that truly work for YOU.

Here's How to Communicate Your Needs Effectively:
1. Be Clear and Specific
Instead of "I need help in the morning," try "I need help showering and getting dressed by 8:30am on weekdays." The more specific you are, the better your support worker can meet your needs.
2. Share Your Preferences
It's okay to have preferences! Whether it's how you like things done, the temperature of your shower, or what activities you enjoy – let your support worker know. They're there to support YOU, your way.
3. Set Boundaries
You have the right to set boundaries around your personal space, privacy, and how support is provided. A good support worker will respect and appreciate knowing what makes you comfortable.
4. Explain Your Goals
What do you hope to achieve? Whether it's building independence, participating in more community activities, or learning new skills – sharing your goals helps your support worker support you better.
5. Speak Up When Something Isn't Working
If something doesn't feel right, say so. Whether it's the timing, the approach, or a mismatch in personality – honest feedback helps create better support for you.
6. Ask Questions
Don't understand something? Want to know why things are done a certain way? Ask! Good support workers welcome questions and want you to feel informed and empowered.
7. Use Your Communication Style
Whether you communicate verbally, use AAC devices, written notes, or gestures – use whatever method works best for you. Your support worker will adapt.
8. Involve Trusted People if Needed
If you're more comfortable having a family member, friend, or advocate help communicate your needs, that's perfectly okay. Your comfort matters most.

Remember:
You're not being "difficult" or "demanding" by expressing your needs. You're being clear. You're being honest. And you deserve support that works for YOU.

At Supportr, we believe in person-centered care – which means YOUR voice, YOUR preferences, and YOUR goals are at the center of everything we do.
