Dungarvin Direct Support Professional

At Dungarvin, we are more than a provider of support services-we're a mission-driven team rooted in respect, response and choice. Since 1976, we've been dedicated to meeting people where they are - providing person-centered supports that allow individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities and/or complex medical needs to live as independently as possible.

Our team is united by a shared commitment to making a real difference, and we encourage you to embrace this opportunity to impact someone's life!

Company Perks/Benefits:

  • Hourly Rate: $11.75/hour
  • Medical, Vision and Dental Insurance for eligible employees
  • Supplemental Insurance
  • Flex Spending and HSA Accounts for eligible employees
  • Pet Insurance
  • Life Insurance for eligible employees
  • 401 K plan with up to 3% employer match for eligible employees
  • PAID TIME OFF (PTO) for eligible employees
  • Growth and Development Opportunities
  • Employee Referral Program
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • National Brand Discounts
  • Tapcheck- early pay access
  • PAID training and orientation

What You Get To Do:

The Direct Support Professional (DSP) is responsible for providing direct support, hands-on instruction, assistance, and positive direction to individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) in a manner that ensures their health, safety, successful achievement of service objectives, and personal goals.

If you are passionate about providing care and are willing to challenge yourself daily to make a positive impact on the lives of those you care for, we want YOU on our team!

  • Enrich and support the lives of our residents while maintaining a safe and healthy environment
  • Provide companionship and personalized care while encouraging independence and self-care.
  • Assist with activities of daily living, including dressing, bathing, grooming, toileting, and eating.
  • Complete medication administration and follow medical protocols.
  • Prepare meals and snacks.
  • Perform light housekeeping and laundry duties.
  • Provide mobility and transfer assistance, which may include using mechanical lift devices.
  • Implement positive behavior supports and de-escalate challenging behaviors when needed.
  • Other duties as assigned

Why This Role:

  • Personal fulfillment, a meaningful career, and the chance to make a difference.
  • Positively impact someone's life.
  • Gain health care experience to further your career
  • Varied day-to-day experiences; no two days are the same.
  • We offer a variety of full time and part time positions!

What Makes You a Great Fit:

  • Previous experience as a direct support professional or caregiver is preferred
  • Must have a valid driver's license
  • Person-centered focus
  • Dependable, adaptable, flexible
  • Ability to lift and transfer
  • Positive role-model for others and able to work on a team
  • Computer skills for documentation
  • 18 years or older
  • Good communication is key in this role. You'll rely on your reading, writing, and communication skills to document care, follow support plans, and collaborate with both internal and external team members.
