Adult Brain Injury - Direct Service Professional/Adult Companion

Multicultural Community Services Of The Pioneer Valley

The Multicultural Community Service's ABI (Acquired Brain Injury) program is seeking Part Time and Full Time Direct Service Professionals. MCS provides supports to adults who have Acquired Brain Injury.

An acquired brain injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain that has occurred after birth. This includes all types of traumatic brain injuries and also brain injuries caused after birth by cerebral vascular accidents (strokes) and loss of oxygen to the brain (hypoxic brain injury). 

MCS is a private, non-profit agency founded in 1979 to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families. We currently support over 2,000 people through our Family Support, Residential, Individual Support, Adult Foster Care, facility based respite, ABA and Home Care Nursing programs. Our Acquired Brain Injury program provides home and community based services that enhance the capacities of the individuals we serve to maximize their quality of life as members of their community.

The ABI program is looking for committed employees to care for Clients with disabilities. The care needed can range from providing companionship to total care. We are currently serving clients in the greater Springfield area and most of them are wheelchair bound. All the clients live in their own apartments or home. Staff would be working 1 on 1, and this would include cooking, cleaning and personal care. All the Clients are interactive, enjoy talking with the Staff, and are very appreciative to have a helping hand.

Previous experience with PCA work preferred. CPR & First Aid training will be provided.
