Easy Read Document
This document tells you about your rights.
Australian laws respect the rights of people with disability. The laws say you:
- Should be included in community life
- Have the same rights as all other Australians.
What are your human rights?
You should be:
- Safe in your home and anywhere else
- Treated with respect
- Part of your cultural
You should be able to:
- Participate in your religion
- Express your sexuality
- Communicate in your family’s language.
When working with iSeekCare and other disability support providers you also have rights.
You have the right to:
- Receive good quality services
- Tell us what you want
- Choose the type of support worker you want
- Make your own choices.
You also have the right to:
- Be safe
- Get help when you need it
- Try new things and take risks.
How does iSeekCare respect your rights?
iSeekCare will:
- Keep you safe
- Show you respect and respect your privacy
- Treat you well
- Help you make your own choices
- Listen to you
- Involve your family, advocate and other support carers (if you want us to).
We will also:
- Ask you to tell us what supports you want and the type of worker you need
- Keep your personal information private.
We can also help you find an advocate if you need one.
You can safely:
- Make complaints and provide feedback to us
- Tell us you want to use another provider.
We will follow your instructions, unless we feel that you may get hurt.
We will then talk to you and your advocate/family about any risks involved to help you make a safe decision.
We also make sure our support workers follow our Service Charter of Rights.
