What are the responsibilities and job description for the Direct Support Professional position at ARCA?
We are a warm and welcoming residential home dedicated to supporting four wonderful ladies with developmental disabilities. They have a wonderful sisterhood much like the friendship of Elphaba and Glinda in the film Wicked! They do not have magical abilities, but they like to create and use their abilities to paint, do word searches, work at a job, and go out and do fun things in the community. They like getting their hair and nails done going to dances, the casino and social events and doing activities just like you and me! There is no aggression, and all women are extremely high functioning needing a bit of support. Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where our ladies can thrive, grow, and lead fulfilling lives. We are seeking compassionate and dedicated individuals to join our team and make a meaningful difference in the lives of our residents. If you are enthusiastic about caregiving and want to join a team that values kindness, respect, and dedication, we would love to hear from you. The ability to cook healthy meals, drive, have a sense of humor, and have a happy caring personality are plusses! We hope to hear from you if you feel called to apply for this position.
