Start your support work career well supported.
The Frey Health Group Graduate Program, delivered through Grove Support Services, supports early-career support workers as they move from university into confident, capable and reflective professional practice. Graduating is exciting, but it is also a big step, and you will not be expected to figure it all out alone.
We want graduates supported with guidance, mentoring, supervision, practical experience and professional development as they begin their careers.
The program is designed for graduates across support work services, and continues to grow with our services:
Our philosophy
At Frey Health Group, we believe great support workers are developed through support, reflection and experience. Our approach is built around four things.
The program
Graduates may have the opportunity to work across community, location and telehealth settings, developing flexible, practical skills while learning to adapt support to the needs of children, adults, families and support networks.
- Shadowing experienced support workers
- A gradual transition into seeing your own clients
- Community-based practice, including homes, schools and other natural environments
- Location-based support
- Telehealth experience where appropriate
- Support supervision and mentoring
- Connected learning opportunities
- Professional development workshops
- Peer learning and case discussions
- Support with documentation, report writing and support planning
- Opportunities to develop discipline-specific skills
The structure of the program may continue to evolve as Frey Health Group grows, so it stays responsive, current and aligned with best practice.
Learning areas
Learning opportunities may include:
Discipline-specific development
Graduates may also take part in discipline-specific learning, depending on their role and profession. This may include areas such as:
Is this you?
- Warm, curious and reflective
- Passionate about working with children, adults and families
- Interested in community-based and connected practice
- Open to feedback and professional growth
- Committed to ethical, evidence-informed and person-centred care
- Looking for a supportive workplace to build confidence over time
Our commitment
At Frey Health Group, graduates are not expected to know everything from day one. We value questions, reflection, growth and genuine care.
Our goal is to create an environment where emerging support workers feel supported to become capable, compassionate professionals who make a meaningful difference in the lives of the people they support. We look forward to supporting the next generation of support workers as they begin their careers.
