What Does a Day Support DSP Do?

Your job is to help the individuals we support have safe, productive, engaging, and meaningful days .

No two days are exactly the same. You may help someone learn a new skill, participate in a community outing, work toward a personal goal, complete an activity, or simply encourage them to do something more independently than they did yesterday.

Your Responsibilities Will Include:

• Supporting adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
• Teaching and reinforcing daily living, social, communication, and independent living skills.
• Encouraging individuals to make choices and become more independent.
• Participating in community outings, recreational activities, and special events.
• Creating fun, meaningful, and engaging activities.
• Providing assistance based on each individual's needs and abilities.
• Following Individual Support Plans (ISPs), behavioral plans, and established support strategies.
• Monitoring individuals' health, safety, and overall well-being.
• Recognizing and reporting behavioral, medical, or safety concerns.
• Completing accurate daily documentation and progress notes.
• Building positive, professional relationships with the individuals you support.
• Maintaining a clean, safe, organized, and welcoming environment.
• Participating in staff meetings, required training, and professional development.
• Working collaboratively with supervisors, coworkers, families, and other members of the support team.
• Performing other duties as assigned.

You Could Be a Great Fit If You Are:

• Dependable – people can count on you to show up and be on time.
• Patient – you understand that everyone learns and communicates differently.
• Compassionate – you genuinely enjoy helping others.
• Positive – you bring encouragement and good energy to your work.
• Professional – you communicate respectfully and maintain appropriate boundaries.
• Observant – you notice changes and understand when something needs to be reported.
• A Team Player – you're willing to communicate, collaborate, and help your team.
• Motivated – you don't need someone constantly telling you what needs to be done.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who will treat the individuals we support with dignity, respect, patience, and encouragement every day.

Minimum Requirements

Applicants must have:

• High School Diploma or GED.
• Valid Driver's License.
• Acceptable driving record.
• Ability to successfully complete required criminal background checks.
• Central Registry clearance.
• Current physical.
• Negative TB/PPD screening.
• CPR/First Aid certification or ability to obtain required certification after hire.
