Working conditions
Workers in the field of disability support give services to clients in their own homes or in institutionalized care facilities. Workers are required to do their tasks according to a schedule that may include nights, weekends, and holidays. Support workers for those with disabilities may often be asked to move in with their client. They work under close or consistent supervision, adhering to established protocols and procedures.

Tools and Technologies 
In most cases, a disability support worker will assist people who have significant functional limitations with their day-to-day lives. Equipment like hoists for helping patients get in and out of bed, or swivel cushions for use in automobiles, are examples of devices that can be used to facilitate mobility. 

They may also use specialized forms of communication technology, such as programmes that convert text to speech for persons with hearing impairments or that enlarge images or provide Braille for those with visual impairments. Wheelchair hoists, adapted controls, and fully accessible vehicles are all things that a disability assistance worker may need to be familiar with.

Key Responsibilities include:

• Provide quality direct support to service users in accordance with their support requirements, the programmes they are participating in, and all support plans, including the Individual Plan of the service user.

• Implement development programmes and identify and support service user learning opportunities.
• Assist in the delivery of programmes that encourage the development of social networks and participation in community activities among service users.
