Clinical Manager – Disability Services (Complex Home Care) |WFH/Remote|

Support people with complex disabilities to live safely at home.

If you're an experienced nurse looking for a more sustainable role, this is an opportunity to work in clinical leadership - with greater flexibility and the ability to work from home.

At DHSA, we support people with complex physical disabilities and progressive conditions, including motor neurone disease (MND) and multiple sclerosis (MS), to live safely and comfortably in their own homes.

Our focus is clear: we provide consistent, clinically supported care that adapts as people's needs change, so people can remain at home with the right support around them.

We build dedicated care teams around each person, allowing us to recognise changes early, respond appropriately, and maintain safety and consistency for clients and their families.

About the role

This is a permanent part-time position (~0.5 FTE, approximately 4 hours per day) and is primarily work from home, with flexibility in how you structure your day.

You’ll take clinical ownership of a portfolio of clients, ensuring care is safe, consistent, and responsive as care needs evolve over time.

Day to day, you will:

• Oversee clinical care for people living with complex and progressive conditions
• Supervise and guide disability support workers, providing clinical direction and oversight
• Conduct care assessments, develop care plans, and review these as needs change
• Provide oversight for complex clinical supports, including PEG feeding, tracheostomy care, and respiratory support.
• Coordinate safe hospital-to-home discharge pathways, working closely with hospital teams and allied health providers
• Lead intake assessments and onboarding for new clients
• Ensure care delivery aligns with NDIS practice standards and compliance requirements
• Contribute to quality improvement and service development

In-person requirements: Some travel within metropolitan Melbourne is required for client assessments and occasional team meetings.

You’ll be supported by an experienced team of healthcare professionals, including clinicians with extensive expertise in complex disability care.

About you

You are a Registered Nurse (AHPRA) with experience in acute, community, or complex care settings.

You may come from ICU, Emergency, HDU, or community nursing — environments where you’ve developed strong clinical judgement, confidence managing risk, and the ability to make decisions independently.

You bring both clinical skills and person-centred care. You understand the importance of building trust with clients and families, particularly when supporting people with complex or progressive conditions.

You’ll be well suited to this role if you:

• Have solid post-registration experience, including exposure to complex or high-acuity clinical environments
• Have experience with complex clinical supports
• Are confident working independently in a leadership role.
• Can communicate effectively and compassionately with clients, families, and multidisciplinary teams

Experience with the NDIS framework is desirable, but not essential. We will support the right person to build this knowledge.

This role requires strong clinical judgement, independence, and the ability to manage complexity with confidence.

Salary and benefits

• $90,000 – $95,000 full-time equivalent (pro rata), plus superannuation, and performance bonus
• Primarily work from home, with flexible hours
• No shift work
• Professional development and NDIS training supported
• Opportunity to grow into a full-time leadership role, if desired.

Why DHSA?

We are a specialist disability service provider. That means you’ll be working with clients with complex physical health needs, including progressive neurological conditions.

You will build trusting relationships with clients and families, develop support teams with external professionals, and see the direct impact of your work in helping people live safely and comfortably in their own homes.

As Clinical Manager, you’ll be trusted to lead, supported by an experienced team, and given genuine opportunity for professional development and growth as the organisation expands.
