IDEA Services supports people with intellectual disabilities to enjoy great lives as part of their communities. If you are looking for a job where you can build a long-term career and where no two days are the same, this is the job for you!

Our service in Beach Haven is a 24/7 service. There will be 2 - 4 individuals living in the home - both of Korean and NZ European descent.

We are looking for resilient people, with calm natures and confidence in dealing with behaviours that challenge to join our culturally based team. You will have the ability to deal with the unexpected daily. Your role will be to help them gain independence so that they can make their own choices, be part of their community, and live a fulfilling life.



What does the job involve?

  • As a support worker you will support them to attend different activities daily in the community.
  • You will be supporting people to grow their independence and learn skills for daily living (e.g. using public transport, getting a job, manage money, cook a korean meal).
  • Supporting people with their emotional regulation skills - part of what you do each day will be helping them to recognise and respond to emotional overwhelm and react safely to this
  • Being able to work on individual needs, supporting people with daily activities such as shopping, cleaning, showering and administering medication.
