• Community Engagement: Accompany participants on outings and encourage social interaction— having fun is a job requirement!


• Documentation: Maintain accurate, timely, and compliant daily progress notes and paperwork.

Qualifications

• Education: High School Diploma or GED equivalent.


• Experience: At least one year of experience in human services, healthcare, or a related caregiving field is preferred, but not required.


• Age: Must be 18 years of age or older.


• Mobility: Valid Driver’s License and active auto insurance.


• Screening: Ability to pass background checks and drug screenings.


• Communication: Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate effectively with participants, families, and administrative staff.

Why Join Our Team?
