Direct Support Professional -- New London County -- Multiple Shifts Available

Locations: New London County-- Pay: Starting at $18.46/hour, with increases per union contract

We believe people with disabilities deserve more than care, they deserve a real life: good relationships, real choices, a place in their community. As a DSP, you're the person who helps someone start their day, get where they're going, and have a good day, every day.

We're hiring full-time, part-time, and per diem, all shifts including overnight.

What you'll do:

• Help someone get dressed, make breakfast, or get ready for the day
• Go along to appointments, errands, or activities in the community
• Give medications and follow care plans, with training and nursing support
• Step in calmly if something unexpected happens

What we offer:

• Health insurance, including dental, for eligible positions
• Union pension, fully employer-paid
• Paid time off
• Flexible scheduling across all shifts

What you need:

• Valid driver's license and high school diploma or equivalent
• Standard pre-employment screening (physical, TB test)
• CPR and medication certification provided through training

Some people come to this with years of experience. Others are brand new and turn out to be exactly right. What matters most: you genuinely like people, you follow through, you show up, and you're comfortable with hands-on work like lifting, transfers, and helping with personal care.
