Dear community,
What a month today has been 🤯
I will no longer be referring Support Workers who are new to the scheme. By new, I mean 12-24 months experience, no service agreements or mental health training.
My reputation has been tarnished, yet again, and said Support Worker has been paid thousands of dollars, all the while they’ve been s**t canning me.
I should have listened to my instinct, but I agreed to help them change careers (many careers).
I’d love to see what her income has been since she met me. I don’t have staff, I just refer clients to workers.
Lesson for me: don’t refer to people who are cocky, don’t understand the NDIS code of conduct, and who don’t prepare service agreements, and go rogue daily.
Lesson for her: get disability and mental health trained, get qualified, do the hard yards, work for an agency and earn a low hourly rate, wipe adult bums, clean up s**t, vomit, feral toilets, get physically and verbally assaulted then come for me and tell me you’re qualified and more experienced than me.
If she can work pro bono for 12 weeks, and not question the matter, or complain - please come see me.
Lastly, do not breach the NDIA code of conduct by helping your support work client engage with a new Support Coordinator.
Do not attempt to read their budget, and tell the local community lies.
The matter has been addressed and resolved.
