What are the responsibilities and job description for the Host Home Provider-Colorado Springs position at Stellar Care?
Stellar Care Host-Home Provider
The primary goal of a Host-Home Provider (Independent Contractor) is to provide the kind of support an adult with developmental disabilities needs to become an active member of society. Our providers realize this goal by working with Stellar Care in many of the following ways:
- Providing a home-like environment, where the individual becomes a part of the family.
- Addressing the medical, psychological and emotional needs of the individual.
- Developing Enhanced Life Plans that encourage independence and community contribution.
- Providing guidance in activities such as recreation, work and personal care.
There is a higher need for host homes which offer wheelchair accessibility and providers able and willing to provider line of sight supervision to higher needs individuals.
These are only a few of the services our Host-Home Providers can offer by working with Stellar Care. Individual needs vary, and our Host-Home Providers are thoroughly screened to ensure an appropriate match in every situation. Our Directors' depth of personal experience underscores our determination to exhaust all the options when placing individuals in the right setting.
