Eyre and Far North Local Health Network has moved to a Consumer Directed Care model for the provision of aged care, disability, and support services.
This allows consumers to maintain greater control over their lives by allowing them to make choices about the services they receive and who delivers those services.
Consumers are encouraged to actively participate in identifying and setting goals, and to determine what level of involvement they want in managing their own care arrangements.
Under this model of care, the funding associated with the role of the Community Support Worker is controlled by consumers, rather than by the health provider.
This means that consumers have an active role in determining the shifts that are available, the duties that are performed, the frequency of demand for the service, and the choice of provider organisation.

Assist with personal hygiene, grooming, and mobility as required.
Perform household duties including cleaning, laundry, minor gardening tasks and meal preparation.
