Would you like to open your home to adult(s) with developmental disabilities? Do you feel you can promote inclusion and a sense of belonging?

We are currently recruiting for flexible independent contractors providing respite support to our clients in your home in rural Central Alberta, east of Red Deer

Summary:

The mandate of the service is to offer supports that match the needs of the individual in order to enhance the quality of life of the person. The three areas that are emphasized in providing service to individuals with developmental disabilities are independence, well-being, and inclusion.

As a Provider Respite, you are a vital member of this Program. Without you, we would not be able to offer this amazing residential service to individuals with developmental disabilities. You offer services in your home with a focus on independence, well-being, and inclusion.

Program Objectives:

- To support people with their well-being, independence, and inclusion.
- To develop annual Individualized Service Plans, taking into consideration the person's unique strengths and needs.
- To provide the person with opportunities for growth and learning.
- To ensure that Home Support Providers and Service Coordinators are appropriately skilled to provide quality of care and support to the individuals.

Duties:

- Provide a stable and secure home environment where the individual is a member of the household with equal rights and responsibilities.
- Help the individual develop self-esteem, self-confidence, and independence.
- Encourage individuals to maintain good self-help skills (i.e. hygiene, nutrition, domestic, etc.).
- Provide a healthy environment where there is no smoking inside the home.
- Ensure the home is safe and clean (i.e. storing hazardous materials in a safe location, safe food handling and storage, and checking water temperature as required).
- If needed, monitor and encourage that medication is taken by the individual as prescribed by their doctor.
- Assist with the individual and his/her support team in completing quarterly case reviews and monthly fire drills.
- Teach the individual what to do in case of an emergency (i.e. a quarterly fire drill is completed).
- Assist and encourage the individual to participate in social and leisure activities.
- Respect the individual's privacy and confidentiality.
- Attend all mandatory training and keep it current.
- Sign off annually on the Agency Agreement for Provision of Contractor Services.
- Maintain home and vehicle insurance with a minimum of $2,000,000 liability coverage.
- Be aware of the Individual Rights and Responsibilities.
- Notify the Service Coordinator of any plans around moving or having another person move into the home.
- Operate within the parameters of Catholic Social Service's mission and core values.

Requirements:

- Complete an interview with the Program Supervisor or service designate.
- Complete a home study.
- Provide and have 3 completed references.
- Submit a Vulnerable Sector Check and Child Intervention Record Check for all adults over the age of 18 residing in the home.
- Provide proof of vehicle insurance at a minimum of $2,000,000 legal liability.
- Provide proof of home insurance at a minimum of $2,000,000 legal liability.
- Sign the Agency Agreement for Provision of Contractor Services.
