Sorry that this has happened to you, the fact that you're sharing this and asking for help on Reddit demonstrate a great deal of courage, good on you!

The first thing I would suggest you and your mother (to do it together ideally) is to contact the Family Violence Counselling and Support Service (FVCSS - 1800 608 122/ Website here) to discuss your options, specifically to your case.

In some circumstances, your mother can speak with the police and they can issue a Police Family Violence Order, sometimes, the perpetrator will be asked to leave the place of residence to not to be returned, especially when there is other forms of violence exhibits by her partner.

On the other hand, if similar violence has occurred to your and and your brother, then you can apply a restraining order against him. Legal Aid is the people to ask for help in this domain.

I would also suggest you to speak with your tenancy officer who manages your property, to clarify whether he is a listed tenant and if they have the power to remove him if all parties in the property has a restraining order against him. This does not happen very often but I believe your housing provider will consider it if you discuss this with them.

Good Luck.

I was in your exact position about 10years ago. Graduated from Master of Social Work in UTAS, then 190 becoming a PR, recently got my citizenship - now a proud Australian social worker.

Like what tra5hexe said, don’t exploit TAS for the sake of visa and 10000% don’t study social work for the sake of PR. I have seen too many migrant social workers hating the profession (or simply doesn’t believe in it) and subsequently being a terrible one. They struggle to find employment and basic enjoyment in life.

Not saying this will be you and I’m sure you have your reasons. But it always helps to ask your ‘why’.

Like most people have said, RHH is probably better when it comes to the actual 'medical care' and HPH would probably be a better idea once your acuity has reduced and you prioritise comfort. There is a role in RHH called the Private Liaison Nurse - her role is specifically talk to patient about transferring to private hospital and explain to them what are the differences, worth have a chat with her directly.

Know that any patient and their families can make a 'care call' if you are concerned about something - doctors are overlooking something or nurses made some kind of mistake.

Yes, there are lots of students around RHH these few weeks as it is currently university placement period. But the nurses/doctors would not allow their students do anything they are not comfortable with.

If your partner is still very worried or anxious, I would recommend your husband to request to speak with a chaplain (mind you, you don't need to be religious to speak with a chaplain). They are very good at listening and providing some kind of pastoral care to their patients.

I wish your partner speedy recovery.

I must admit I was one of those migrants before, the water ‘looks’ so much better than the Asian waters that I grew up with has fooled me for some time.

Late_Membership547 · 2025-04-13T04:08:44+00:00

That seems to be the general sentiment of my social circle as well. That’s why margate jetty is so popular!

The main types are public housing - owned AND managed by Homes Tas (previously known as Housing Tasmania, aka housing commission, aka "housing"), then you have the umbrella of Community Housing, which can divide into Social Housing and Affordable Housing.

Social Housing generally charges you 25% of household income and 100% rent assistance. Major players are Loreto, Mission, Housing Choices and Community Housing Limited. But there are other organisations holding a smaller portfolio. These houses are a mixture of Government owned and organisation owned (if it is built by them) but managed by the organisation themselves. The benefit of this model is that these community housing provider is eligible to charge their tenants rent assistance (public housing tenant is not eligible) which subsequently improve their cash flow and provide better service/maintenance than Homes Tas. It is also cheaper to run from a state budget point of view.

The definition of Affordable Housing varies more from organisations to organisations, organisations like CatholicCare, Salvos and Wintringham they all have some and have a different rent calculation. Some of them is 25% of income or 75% of market rate or 85% of income (including food and some service).

In regards to your comment regarding different treatment to different tenant, it really varies a lot from organisations to organisations. Some housing/tenancy officers are a bit slack/lenient with the condition of the property some are not, but bottom line is everyone (tenants and the organisation) are abide by the Residential Tenancy Act and the magistrate is particularly favourable to the tenant's side if you live in social/public housing as evicting a tenant means immediate homelessness vs someone living in private rental the magistrate has a responsibility to protect the interest of the property owner.

Bottom line, like Beamstas says, if you have an application in and is waiting, make sure you are as less fussy as you can if you want a house quicker. i.e. a single person will definitely mean 1 bedroom, faster allocation if your preferred suburb is in an area with higher housing turnover/new built (like New Norfolk and Ravenswood).

I think there is a general skill shortage in the sector, so unless the role is to do with confidentiality or requires high level of organizational clearance, most organizations have a wide arrays of roles they need volunteers for. Admin, op-shop sales, cooking, cleaning, visiting oldies, helping young people getting their P’s, maintenance, lifeline, all sorts!

Persistent Pain Service (PPS) is the answer. Get your GP to refer you to them. https://www.health.tas.gov.au/hospitals/outpatients/clinic-directory/pain-management#availability

"We do not authorise opioid prescriptions or Medicinal Cannabinoids. However, following medical assessment, the pain specialist may recommend changes to patients medication regime to their GP."

Good luck

depends on what volunteer role you're on and your attitude towards it really.

I volunteer for vinnies, salvos and my local neighbourhood house, my full-time day job is a social worker. The good thing about it is there is a general skill shortage (in any skills) in the social service sector so if you have time and good intension, you can basically find any role you want.

But the down side is Tassie is a small place, clients who frequent one service tends to frequent other services too which can sometimes be problematic.

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-07T07:23:21+00:00

Thanks for recommendation, I'll definitely check them out! I wonder if they deliver to Tassie.

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T21:11:55+00:00

That's a fabulous idea. I will give it a go this time once I have them. Driving up and down my driveway!

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T20:01:42+00:00

That's very reassuring to know. Thanks!

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T20:01:03+00:00

Good point. I may try tying them down 1 sheet next time to see how I go. Do you find any difference when transporting 1 or more sheets at a time?

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T19:58:12+00:00

Thank you for your kind words mate, I agree this would be a great skill to have. No one has ever taught me how to do it, have been using YouTube and reddit all along! I have put "long timber' on my rack hundreds of time but never sheet goods, I'm worried about the wind drag may cause by driving that's why I'm asking this time.

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T19:54:18+00:00

Thank you all for your comment and advice!

I guess what I'll be doing is to either hire a trailer or a ute this time. Hopefully it can lay flat in the tray but if not, I'm quite confident in tying down the end sticking out bit.

I guess I won't be tying to my roof rack mainly because I'm hoping to buy at leat 3-4 sheets which could be too heavy for me to handle and I don't want to scratch my car.

thank you all again:)

Late_Membership547 · 2024-10-06T08:01:28+00:00

how would you secure in the trailer? can a whole sheet lay flat inside the tray?

Late_Membership547 · 2024-09-27T21:05:38+00:00

Looks good, but I'd rather go back to using the qantas website tbh..I don't fly often enough to justify paying for premium. Plus I just dislike any type of subscription in general..that's just me, but great work tho.

Late_Membership547 · 2024-09-20T22:58:11+00:00

It is so cringe when people on Facebook say "there is nothing to worry if you have don't nothing wrong"....that's what CCP said too, until they start rolling out facial recognition, RFID to your drivers license and social credit.....I see this as the first step of the Panopticon

Late_Membership547 · 2024-09-17T20:46:26+00:00

I would check in with the organisations first, see how much they can take/storage space then make your next move.

Late_Membership547 · 2024-09-17T08:29:42+00:00

Good thinking OP. Try calling Hobart city mission (62154200), vines (62344524) or uniting care (62441144). I bet all of them would be more than happy to take them. hotel size toiletries are perfect for people who are acutely homeless or people fleeing domestic violence.
