OFF Wed: 9am-3pm Thu: OFF Fri: 9am-3pm Sat: OFF Sun: OFF Are you a
FAN of families or is your family your biggest FAN? If the answer
is yes, it is because you value and demonstrate talents like being:
Consistent; the one who is reliable in good times and bad, Curious;
the one who is an effective communicator, who listens and loves to
learn, Caring; the one who is empathetic and shows everyone
compassion and respect, and the Coach: the one who supports and
encourages everyone to thrive and succeed. These FANtastic
superpowers are perfect to start or continue a successful career
working at our family-oriented company which provides services to
intellectually and developmentally challenged adults in their homes
(and community) as they participate in daily routines and
recreational activities. We will be a big FAN of yours too if, at a
minimum, you have: A High School diploma or GED equivalent and be
at least 18 years old, Relevant experience working with Individuals
with intellectual or developmental disabilities, behavioral
challenges, dual diagnoses, or forensic involvement, A current
driver’s license and California automobile insurance coverage for
driving your personal vehicle to and from various community
locations either independently or with other team members,
including Individuals, and Ability to read, write and speak
English. Bilingual in English/Spanish is preferred. You will
quickly become a FAN of our family too because in this house we
provide: Comprehensive Medical, Dental and Vision insurance plans
and vacation pay. What is healthier than taking some time out to
take care of you too? A 401k plan with a 5% match and company-paid
group life insurance. And if you choose, you can also elect
additional voluntary Life Insurance, Accidental Death &
Dismemberment, Long-term Disability, and Critical Care Coverage.
You will have access to Bonus Programs; education reimbursement and
we provide professional development and training. What is better
than building your financial and professional net worth at the same
place? A robust Employee Assistance Program that includes
financial, legal, mental health, and wellness services and
programs. Employee Discounts (access to more family fun to include
travel, sporting events, attractions such as theme parks, movie
theaters, restaurants, and much more) to recognize and support your
emotional well-being and maintain a healthy balance. After all,
every family FAN needs to have fun! But here’s a known family
secret , being part of one, does take effort – it’s all about what
you do (your responsibilities/contributions) and how you do it
(your behaviors/superpowers) so here are some of the things you can
expect to experience as you build your FAN club in this house.
There will be challenges: Just like families, disabilities come in
different types. You will see many of them along with the mental
health challenges in the Individuals (aka the Program participants)
that we serve. You will also learn about the different agencies and
resources we work with to help you provide support directly, or
indirectly, to the Individuals. There will be chores: You will work
with Individuals and their “circle of support” (social agencies,
health care providers, etc.) and family members to ensure that our
behaviorally challenged and/or medically fragile Individuals can
develop and/or maintain their own homes and daily routines. You do
this by providing first-hand training and developmental support
across a broad spectrum of activities, e.g., daily living skills,
mobility training, developing coping skills, navigating the
community, money management, safe, self-medication management and
other customized interventions based on the Individual’s Service
Plan. You will also take care to document and complete all
reporting in an accurate and timely manner and engage in proactive
and open communications with all key stakeholders, including
recommendations for modifications, alternative training methods or
need for adaptive equipment, etc. to ensure the personal care and
safety of your assigned Individual(s). There will be chats,
C.A.R.E., & cheers: You will participate in all required training,
team, and company meetings to build your knowledge, skills, and
abilities to grow in the family. We like to promote from within our
own house! You will take ownership of your own behaviors, and help
coach others over time, in how to effectively demonstrate the
company’s C.A.R.E. values (compassion, adaptability, respect, and
empowerment). You will receive ongoing coaching and performance
feedback and be recognized for your personal and team contributions
in addition to demonstrating the C.A.R.E. values. Related
