Job Overview

Join our dedicated team as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) in the Fort Smith area, where your compassion and energy will make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals with diverse needs.

DSP Position: Monday-Friday: 3:00PM-9:00 PM

Saturday & Sunday: day and evening shifts

As a DSP, you will be an essential part of creating a positive, nurturing environment that empowers residents to thrive. Your proactive approach and caring attitude will help foster a community where everyone feels valued and supported.

Responsibilities

Assist residents with activities of daily living (ADLs), including grooming and hygiene to promote dignity and independence.
Monitor residents’ health by taking vital signs, observing for changes, and reporting findings in accordance with care plans.
Support medication administration and ensure compliance with HIPAA regulations to maintain confidentiality and safety.
Assist with cooking and manage meal plans tailored to individual dietary needs.
Use patient transfer methods like Hoyer lifts or manual handling techniques to ensure safe mobility for residents.
Maintain a clean and safe environment by assisting our persons served in performing light cleaning duties and adhering to infection control protocols.
Provide transportation assistance for appointments or community outings, ensuring resident safety at all times.
Document observations, care activities, and communication with healthcare professionals accurately in resident records.
Engage residents through meaningful activities that support cognitive function and social interaction in line with their care plans.

"Stand by" position (2): The above responsibilities and the flexibility listed below.

An "Stand by" position means that while the employee isn't working a standard schedule, they are available to be contacted and work if needed.

The employee must be reachable and ready to work during specific times or on short notice. This could be for emergency situations, unexpected surges in workload, or during times when regular staff are unavailable.
Flexible Scheduling:
The schedule is often flexible, but the employee must be prepared to work during their on-call hours or when called upon. The exact nature of the on-call schedule can vary widely depending on the job and industry.
Workload:
The workload can be unpredictable. Employees might be required to work very few hours in a given period or might be called upon frequently.

Schedule will be:

Monday and Tuesday - Off

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday : 5pm-7a

Saturday, Sunday: all hours

Paid a base rate of 40 hours * $12.50 whether you get called out to work a shift or not. Up to 60 hours weekly. Must be in the Fort Smith/Van Buren area in order to reach homes quickly when call outs occur.

More details in the interview or call us for specific shift availability. Applicants must be available to travel around the Fort Smith.

Experience

A high school diploma/GED, reliable transportation, valid driver’s license and registration, auto insurance in applicant’s name, electronic device with access to the internet, and ability to perform daily life skills are required. Lifting may be required for specific positions. This is a safety sensitive position, meaning the potential employee is responsible for the safety of others. The successful applicant must have the ability to understand and implement written plans of care and document services provided.

A strong commitment to compassionate patient care combined with manual handling skills and the ability to assist with ADLs will ensure success as a DSP.

Join us today to be part of a supportive team that truly cares! Your dedication helps create a supportive community where every individual receives personalized attention and respect—making each day rewarding for both residents and staff alike.
