ABOUT YOU

In any given day, you might cook, clean, bathe, manage medications, take residents to appointments, interact with family members, and design games and crafts. We’re looking for employees who are professional, flexible, compassionate, and can remain composed in stressful situations.

This is a team-based position. Our sites are like your family home! Your dependability, integrity, empathy for others (both persons served and your fellow employees), and dedication to teamwork are essential to this position.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Our Residential Care Advisors provide assistance and training to individuals with Intellectual Disabilities/Serious Mental Illness in our residential treatment locations. We’re looking for people who have experience developing and mentoring a team, and who believe in a strengths-based approach, and use positive practices to help guide their everyday activities.

Garden View Manor is a 56 bed CMHPCH where each resident has their own bedroom and bathroom. You work together with a team of at least 4-7 staff on any given shift, so you are never alone. While required daily tasks to ensure the health and well-being of the residents and site are of utmost importance, this position offers many opportunities to engage with the residents both on site and out in the community. Along with daily interactions and conversations, staff are highly encouraged to help support the residents’ well-being through socialization, developing and encouraging participation of both and on and off-site activities, shopping, trips, and other activities that support their social and personal well-being. If you would enjoy working with a diverse group of residents with the ability to make direct and positive impact on their lives and well-being in the community, this is the job for you.
