Youth and Support Workers are our frontline. They are some of the most important people in the lives of our young people and our NDIS participants.
Today we’d like to give a special shout out to Brock. After five and a half years with Allambi, Brock says he’s really proud of the team that he is a part of and the progress they have made.
Brock has worked with one particular NDIS participant for over four years and says that consistency and a sense of humour are the key to a good relationship. Brock, having three children of his own, also loves the flexibility the job gives him and says it works really well for his family.
“This woman really is amazing!” These were the words from one of our managers when speaking about Rhonda.
Rhonda has been a Youth Worker with Allambi Care for close to three years and continues to kick goals. So we thought we’d catch up with her.
She told us that gaining a connection with young people and helping them learn about their strengths, was what she liked most about her job. She went on to say that the flexibility of being a Youth Worker with Allambi gives her a real work/life balance. It also allows her to pick up additional shifts when she wants.
Rhonda’s advice to anyone starting out is to remember that what you do makes a difference. 'Be yourself, always encourage & be consistent.'
Thank you Rhonda for the awesome work you do!
