Your Role as Care Partner (Virtual) 

The Virtual Care Partner is responsible for delivering care management services to Support at Home customers to ensure they receive high-quality, person-centred care that meets their individual needs, goals, and preferences.

• Monitoring changing needs and emerging risks, responding proactively to maintain safety, wellbeing and continuity of care.
• Building trusted relationships through regular communication with customers, carers and supporters, ensuring their voices are heard and respected.
• Applying wellness and reablement approaches to encourage independence, confidence and meaningful daily living.
• Ensuring care plans reflect cultural, spiritual and diverse needs, including engaging with culturally specific organisations when required.
• Supporting informed decision-making, including empowering customers to take positive risks that enhance quality of life.
• Maintaining high-quality documentation and compliance, ensuring safe, seamless, and consistent care across all interactions.
