Deep River | ILST, RA, Companion, DSP, or PCA

ABI Resources

Independent Living Skills Trainer (ILST), Recovery Assistant (RA), Companion, Direct Support Professional (DSP), or Personal Care Assistant (PCA)

With ABI Resources, our mission is to provide a calm, balanced, and understanding environment for individuals recovering from brain injuries, strokes, and TBIs. We believe in inspiring and supporting our clients without ever being controlling. We focus on creating an atmosphere of trust and guidance, where clients feel empowered to grow and regain independence, but within the structure and support that ensures their safety and well-being.

As an Independent Living Skills Trainer (ILST), Recovery Assistant (RA), Companion, Direct Support Professional (DSP), or Personal Care Assistant (PCA), you will be a crucial part of our team, offering calm, consistent care while fostering understanding and growth. Your role is not to control or manage, but to guide clients with empathy, helping them navigate challenges while providing the stability they need.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Certainty You value being a consistent and reliable source of support. Your role is to provide stability and balance, helping clients feel secure as they work through their challenges. You excel in environments where your steady presence can offer reassurance to those who depend on you.
  • Variety While some tasks may be routine, you thrive on the small, everyday changes that come from working with individuals on their recovery journeys. You're adaptable, welcoming the opportunity to connect and support clients in different ways based on their unique needs and circumstances.
  • Significance You understand the importance of your work. Every interaction, whether a conversation or assisting with daily tasks, has the power to improve someone's life. You take pride in the knowledge that you are making a meaningful difference.
  • Love and Connection You are driven by the desire to build genuine, supportive relationships. You thrive on forming deep connections with clients, offering them emotional and social support without trying to control or dictate their actions. Your approach is compassionate, helping clients feel valued and understood.
  • Growth You see your role at ABI Resources as an opportunity to grow alongside your clients. You seek ways to develop your own caregiving skills while helping others regain their independence. You value learning and personal growth, knowing that every day presents new opportunities to refine your abilities.
  • Contribution You are deeply motivated by the desire to give. You find fulfillment in being part of something larger than yourself, knowing that your work contributes to the well-being and recovery of others. Your purpose is rooted in helping clients reach their potential in a supportive and non-controlling environment.

Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Consistent Support: Provide balanced, calm, and reliable assistance with daily tasks, helping clients maintain structure and progress in their recovery.
  • Professional Friendship: Build strong, supportive relationships without control, offering emotional and practical support in a way that empowers clients.
  • Daily Living Assistance: Assist with personal hygiene, meal preparation, and keeping the living environment organized, ensuring clients are engaged in the process.
  • Health and Wellness Management: Help clients manage medical appointments and encourage physical and social activity, providing guidance without being overbearing.

What We're Looking For:

  • Education: High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Experience: Ideally, you have 2 to 3 years experience in disability care, but the most important quality is compassion and an understanding approach.
  • Requirements: A valid driver's license, reliable transportation, proof of insurance, and a reference from a personal or professional contact.
  • Age: Must be at least 18 years old.

Why Choose ABI Resources?

  • Supportive Team Culture: Our work environment is based on collaboration, respect, and open communication. Your contributions will always be valued, and you'll be part of a team dedicated to providing the best care.
  • Flexible Scheduling: We offer full-time, part-time, weekday, and weekend shifts to fit your schedule and lifestyle.
  • Meaningful Work: Your role will have a direct impact on improving the quality of life for those we serve. You'll play a key part in helping individuals regain independence in a supportive, non-controlling environment.

Equal Opportunity Employment: At ABI Resources, we believe in diversity and inclusion. We are committed are a team that reflects the unique individuals we serve, with an emphasis on equal opportunity for all.

Join Us Today If you're ready to provide compassionate, balanced support without control, and want to help individuals on their journey to recovery, ABI Resources is the place for you. Apply today and join a team that's committed to providing care that truly makes a difference.
