Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability)
Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET)Working in disability care involves supporting individuals with disabilities in various aspects of their lives, from daily tasks to community participation and personal development. Disability support workers provide care, emotional support, and assistance with activities like personal hygiene, meal preparation, and transportation. Support staff may work in people's homes, residential settings, or other care environments.
This qualification reflects the role of workers in the community and/or residential setting who follow an individualised plan to provide person-centred support to people who may require support due to ageing, disability or some other reason.
Work involves using discretion and judgement in relation to individual support as well as taking responsibility for own outputs. Workers have a range of factual, technical and procedural knowledge, as well as some theoretical knowledge of the concepts and practices required to provide person-centred support.
