Who we are:
At Dungarvin, we’re a mission-driven team built on respect, response, and choice. Since 1976, we’ve provided person-centered support that empowers people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and complex medical needs to live as independently as possible. With services nationwide, we’re committed to making a difference—one person, one voice, one choice at a time.
What You Get To Do:
A Direct Support Professional (DSP) caregiver provides direct support, positive direction, instruction, and assistance to individuals with mental, intellectual & developmental, and physical disabilities. The ultimate goal is to empower individuals with disabilities to live as independently and comfortably as possible while maintaining their dignity and respect.
- Provide hands-on assistance, encouragement, mentoring, and guidance.
- Ensure the comfort, safety, and personal growth of the individuals we serve.
- Assist with daily living tasks such as moving around, getting in and out of bed, dressing, bathing, toileting, personal hygiene and more.
- Perform housekeeping and laundry duties
What Makes You A Great Fit:
- 18 years or older
- Valid driver's license required (due to transporting persons served)
- Candidates must be comfortable driving to transport persons served as required
- Some positions/locations may require your own personal vehicle and auto liability insurance based on the role
- Person-centered, patient, and kind
- Dependable, adaptable, flexible
- Observant and detail oriented
- Positive role-model for others and able to work on a team
- Committed to creating a respectful and collaborative environment
- Computer skills for documentation
- Good communication is key in this role. You’ll rely on your reading, writing, and communication skills to document care, follow support plans, and collaborate with both internal and external team members.
- A successful background clearance is required as part of the onboarding/employment process
We believe in supporting not only those we serve but also each other, ensuring a collaborative and supportive work environment for all.
