Support worker or support coordinator? — Penrith
If you're not sure which role you actually need, here's the plain difference before you get in touch. We also cover nearby Kingswood, St Marys, St Clair.
What this actually looks like
A support worker provides direct, hands-on assistance with everyday life — personal care, daily routines, and getting out into the community — as distinct from a support coordinator, who helps manage your plan rather than deliver care directly.
- Personal care
- Help with tasks a disability makes difficult alone
- Daily living assistance
Support workers who work directly with NDIS participants are required to hold a valid NDIS Worker Screening Check.
Practical, human support.
- Based in Guildford, servicing Penrith as part of our wider Western Sydney coverage.
