Make a Difference as a Safety and Support Representative

At Children's Mercy Camber Olathe, we ensure every person is safe and connected to a strong family and a healthy community. We are seeking dedicated individuals to join our team as Safety and Support Representatives. In this vital role, you will provide direct supervision and engagement for youth and adolescents, modeling safe behavior and using effective problem-solving skills to meet patient needs.

Camber is proud to be a workplace that prioritizes the health and happiness of our team. We currently hold a work wellbeing score of 83, reflecting our commitment to a supportive and thriving professional environment.

To support our team's wellbeing and operational needs, this position follows a schedule of three 12-hour shifts per week. This structure allows for dedicated blocks of time to focus on patient care while providing extended periods for personal rest and recovery.

You will supervise unit activity and patient movement to ensure a safe, clean, and orderly environment. Working closely with a team of professionals, you will follow individualized treatment plans and provide essential support to youth and adults. This position includes providing crisis intervention when necessary, completing accurate documentation, and transporting patients to appointments. You will also act as a role model, focusing on solutions and building upon the strengths of the children and families we serve.

Applicants must possess a high school diploma or GED from an accredited institution. A valid driver’s license and auto insurance are required. We require at least one year of related experience or training, along with intermediate computer skills in Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and general typing.

Preference will be given to candidates with experience in behavioral health settings, particularly those familiar with trauma-informed and person-centered approaches. Experience engaging individuals during a behavioral health crisis is highly valued.

The ability to communicate effectively in English is an essential function of this position. This is a safety-sensitive role that requires maintaining alertness and responding to changing conditions. Physical requirements include moving throughout the facility, standing for extended periods, and the ability to lift up to 75 pounds occasionally. Successful completion of crisis intervention and safety hold training is a condition of employment.

Our culture is driven by family connection and fueled by collaboration. We value diverse perspectives and always ask ourselves, “What would you want for your child?” If you are a solution-focused professional with a heart for helping others, we encourage you to apply and help us continue our mission of providing authenticity and compassion to our community.
