Disability Care

Working with some of our society's most vulnerable people of all ages can be a rewarding and enriching experience. As well as taking care of their personal care needs and offering respite to their families, you'll see them develop greater levels of independence and community participation.

We offer two disability work qualifications which can take you on a career pathway from home care or personal assistant through to residential care officer, employment co-ordinator or lifestyle support officer.

Who is it for?

If you work under direct or regular supervision in the community, or in residential facilities, the Certificate III qualification will help you develop skills to provide personal care for people with a disability and carry out their planned activities.

If you work without direct supervision, or co-ordinate a limited number of other workers, the Certificate IV qualification gives you the skills to provide training and support to people with disabilities, and liaise with other health professionals and service agencies.
