What is a Direct Support Provider?

Direct Support Providers assist people with developmental disabilities to find a satisfying and purposeful place in their community by enhancing their quality of life; promoting growth; assisting with activities of daily living; honouring personal choice and informed decision-making and implementing individualized plans with attainable outcomes.

What is in it for you?

  • Work in a fun and everchanging environment helping people to lead their best lives possible while enjoying pursuits such as gardening, sports, cooking, crafts, music, games and activities of daily living.
  • Work/life balance; you will work 12 hour shifts, 7 out of every 14 days; every other weekend off because we understand that flexibility and family life outside of work is important to you.
  • Generous time away from work policies, starting with 3 weeks of paid vacation per year, paid floater days (an extra 24 hours per year) and personal time for full time employees working 37.5 hours per week or more.
  • Excellent comprehensive health, dental, life and retirement benefits for all full time staff through Manulife benefits including physiotherapy, chiropractic, massage, vision and so much more
  • LifeWorks Employee Assistance Program for all staff including excellent, confidential mental health services and support for all members and family.
  • RRSP with company contribution for full time staff.
  • Full workplace accident insurance for all employees through Chubb Insurance.
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities while at work.

What does a typical work shift look like?
We have day, evening and overnight shifts as our individuals require 24/7 care and support. Every shift is unique and rewarding.


You will provide supervision and support in all aspects of daily living including, but not limited to personal care, hygiene, medication administration, domestic skills, employment, education, home maintenance, money management while facilitating the individuals' inclusion in the community's experiences and activities.

We seek to promote daily involvement within the community, including opportunities for physical and emotional wellness, social and spiritual growth and leisure and recreational activities.


Some of these activities might include household chores, going to the YMCA, assisting individuals to get to medical appointments, grocery shopping or transportation to their job.

Many of our Direct Support Providers work in our group homes but some work with individuals who are able to live on their own and are working out in the community and may need assistance in managing their own home.

You will build meaningful relationships with the individuals and with your fellow team members.

There's no better feeling than going home from work knowing that you've made a positive impact in someone else's life.
