Climb stairs and enter buildings that may not have elevator access
Lift and carry materials, files, laptops, and supplies up to 25 pounds
Utilize computers and electronic documentation systems regularly
Maintain awareness of surroundings and respond appropriately in community-based settings
Drive safely in varying New England weather conditions, including snow, ice, rain, fog, heat, and humidity

Reasonable accommodations may be made for qualified individuals with disabilities.

Why Join AWS?

At AWS, we believe lived experience is powerful. We are committed to creating a supportive, recovery-focused environment where peer professionals are respected as valued members of the care team.
