Role of the Community Support Worker

Your role as a Community Support Worker is to support the client in the treatment that they have been prescribed by the hospital physiotherapists.

It is important to ensure your techniques are accurate and effective as families will copy what you do!

Do not compare your client’s treatment plans or discuss your clients with each other as everyone will be doing something designed specifically for them.

Treatment plans are not always up to date so if your client’s plan is incorrect, please follow the instructions of the parent or adult with CF and feedback to your CFWA supervisor who will follow up with the hospital team.
