Reviews for Disability Support Worker in Complete Nursing & Home Care
Great people overall
Disability Support Worker (Former Employee) - Footscray VIC - 17 June 2019
The management team were very lovely and supportive. They helped us as much as they can and provided excellent support for our every concern. As a DSA, though, you kinda get stuck doing the same jobs. But still happy to have been part of this team.

Interview great, management in Qld terrible
Disability Support Worker (Former Employee) - Southport QLD - 21 August 2022
There’s no communication or follow up when a report is made. The CNHC only hear what the stakeholders want and expect workers to comply with all requests even if it’s not in the best interest of the client. If the family want it we are told to do it and we are not paid but told to go home early and not paid in accordance with NDID FUNDING, much less, Also expecting the worker to not write things up. Too many below board practices and I felt u safe.

Absolutely terrible standards and management completely unapproachable
Disability Support Worker (Former Employee) - Gold Coast QLD - 30 April 2022
Worked for a very short time with this organisation before moving elsewhere as quickly as possible. The work standards are terrible (ie. expected to give medication with no paperwork despite company training stating otherwise - aka. Ignore the 7 rights of medication/give medication without any medication orders /charts, no thanks). Management pressure not to complete incident report in relation to medication incident. Scary work culture. Complete lack of interest in employees. I’ve worked in disability for some time and loved my previous jobs and managers before relocating to qld. I’m a really hard worker and super passionate about the field. People deserve high quality services that adhere to best practice - and workers deserve a workplace that values them as people and puts training modules into practice out in the field instead of operating outside the rules. It’s dangerous.
Pros
Salary is ok but not worth it for the cons.
Cons
lack of support, no buddy shifts, workplace practice doesn’t line up with training
