Full job description

Position Title: Home Support Worker

Position Type: Full-time, 40 hours per week

Wage: $25-28 per hour

Posting Summary:

Home Support Workers serve as ‘behaviour therapists’ for children, youth and adults with highly complex behavioural and emotional disorders and/or developmental conditions. Their purpose is to create safety and stability for these individuals and their families, while pursuing the skill development necessary to help the individual and family reduce their level of service.

The most important qualities of a Home Support Worker (HSW) are #1, their *comfort* with extreme behaviours: Some of our clients in this program can exhibit extreme anger, intense language, and aggressive behaviours. Staying calm and safe, and knowing how to deescalate tough situations is essential. #2, their *commitment* to their shift. The consequences of a HSW dropping a shift are catastrophic for most of Pivot Point’s Complex Care families: This cannot happen. #3, how well they *urgently pursue goals* that will help the client and family lower their level of support needs.

HSW's are not exclusive to any one discipline, but instead typically take direction and implement treatment plans from a team of Lead Professionals (usually Behaviour Consultants and Counsellors) by working either in client homes, staff residences, their local community, or within our community offices.

Are YOU comfortable with more challenging behaviours? Some of our clients can exhibit extreme anger, intense language, and aggressive behaviours. Staying calm and safe, and knowing how to deescalate tough situations is essential.

Can YOU commit to your shifts? Sometimes the consequences of dropping a shift can be catastrophic to our Complex Care families. We’re looking for consistent and stable staff.

Can YOU urgently pursue goals? Our clients and their families need your help to improve their situation - right away - by learning new skills, and building the resilience they need to be successful without our support one day.

Can YOU work under the guidance of a team of Lead Professionals? Our treatment plans include lesson plans provided by our Behaviour Consultants and Counsellors, but possibly psychiatry, SLP, OT, Dietician, etc.

● HSWs provide their availability on a quarterly basis and will be scheduled within their provided availability, but a set number of recurring hours cannot be guaranteed.
