ShareNot the average Direct Support Professional job. The client is a 27 year old male that has autism. The easy part: The client is independent in the bathroom and dresses himself. He does need some help preparing healthy meals. He is active and likes to swim in the river, hike, go for car rides, have fires at the beach and in the mountains. During these times, the job is mostly a big brother/ big sister type of job. The hard part: The young man you would be working with is 6’ tall and weighs 170 lbs. He has grand mal seizures and a neurological condition that causes him to become combative from time to time. When this happens, you will need to step in and keep him safe. At these times, the job becomes more of a bodyguard/American ninja warrior type position. You would be working with 2 other people that have experience and are trained for this. This young man is very athletic and mobile and you have to keep up with him. Flexible shifts/ days and we are willing to consider part time. It is possible to work 40 hours over the span of 2 ½ days, spending the night in the family home. You could then have 4 ½ days off before you would be on shift again. If you prefer a regular schedule of 8 hour per day, that if fine also. Overtime is also available. You must have a valid driver’s license. The job is centered around the family home which is located between Gold Beach and Brookings. Experience not required and all training is provided. Starting rate is $24.00 per hour. Medical, dental and vision insurance provided. You are not required to be vaccinated for COVID-19 and your vaccine status will not be inquired about. If the ad is up, we are still looking for someone. If interested, please tell us something about yourself.
