If you are trained or experienced in caring for people with physical disabilities and are able to execute the appropriate moving and handling methods which ensure safety to both yourself and your client, we have a job which is right for you.

Some students with fine motor disabilities may also require you to scribe for them or assist with feeding.

The role requires you to work school time hours (between 8.30-3.30) Monday to Friday.
