Help at Hand Support recruits Italian-speaking disability support workers for NDIS support roles across its service areas in Australia.

This role suits Italian-English bilingual applicants who can support NDIS participants with daily living, personal care, appointments, transport, community access, home routines, support plan instructions and family communication.

As an Italian-speaking support worker, you assist participants with assigned support tasks, helping them explain care preferences, confirm appointment details, follow home support instructions, and communicate support updates between Italian and English when required.

Italian-language support can be useful when participants or family carers need help understanding appointment details, NDIS-related communication, home support routines, transport plans or changes in daily care tasks.

This role is relevant for applicants with experience in disability support, personal care, community support, family care, or support work within Italian-speaking households, Italian-speaking migrant communities in Australia, Italian-Australian family contexts, or Italian community settings, where relevant.

What Italian Speaking Disability Support Workers Do

Italian-speaking disability support workers support NDIS participants with assigned daily activities, personal care, home routines, community participation, transport, appointments and communication. Assigned duties depend on the participant’s NDIS plan, support needs, location, shift type and worker suitability.

Daily Living Support

Assist with meal preparation, light household tasks, dressing, hygiene reminders, organising the day and maintaining a safe home environment. Italian support can include explaining home support instructions and confirming household preferences where relevant.

Personal Care Support

Assist with showering, grooming, dressing, toileting or mobility while following the participant support plan, privacy preferences and dignity needs. Italian-language care explanation helps participants discuss personal care preferences clearly.

Community Access

Support shopping, social activities, community programs, family visits and planned community settings. Where relevant, this includes Italian community groups, Italian social clubs, community centre visits or family gatherings.

Transport and Appointments

Support transport to appointments, shopping, family commitments and social outings. Italian-English communication helps confirm appointment times, travel arrangements, documents to bring and follow-up information.

Family and Coordinator Communication

Communicate with participants, families, carers, coordinators and care teams about routines, appointments, support changes, participant preferences, risks, concerns and care goals.

Italian-Language Support

Explain assigned care tasks, confirm home routines, check appointment details, discuss support preferences and help families understand updates between Italian and English.

Italian-Speaking Community Context in Disability Support

For Italian-speaking participants and families, workers who explain assigned care tasks, appointment details, transport arrangements and daily routines in Italian and English reduce misunderstanding during support.

Italian-speaking participants and families in Australia can include older migrants, Italian-Australian families, family carers and participants from different Italian-speaking backgrounds. The role focuses on Italian-language clarity rather than assuming one shared culture, age group or household routine.

Where relevant, Italian-language support can also help with planned social and community routines such as family gatherings, Italian community groups, Italian social clubs, community programs or cultural activities.
