Job specific information
CCS Disability Action is committed to including all people within our communities; we highly value diversity and promote difference. We are seeking like-minded people to open their homes as caregivers to support disabled people, in the Marlborough area.
Contract board is a permanent arrangement where it is expected the person supported will become very much a part of your and your family’s life, as well as being involved in activities outside of your home. The support for this is reimbursed at a daily rate and the person will pay a market rate for Board as well.
CCS Disability Action will:
Work with you to establish the individual match that works best for you and your family.
Ensure that all legal requirements are met.
Provide you with training, practical support and ongoing information to ensure you are well equipped for the role.
Coordinate any required disability-related supports, modifications or medical support needed for a disabled person to thrive in their new environment.

About us
