Direct Support Professional

Are you someone who takes pride in your work, is accountable, and finds fulfillment in helping others? Wesley Glen Ministries is looking for full-time Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) who are reliable, compassionate, and committed to making a real impact in the lives of adults with developmental disabilities.

As a Residential DSP, you will be more than just a caregiver—you will be an advocate, mentor, and supporter, helping residents live as independently as possible.

What You’ll Do:

✅ Take ownership of creating a safe, clean, and engaging home environment.
✅ Support residents with daily life skills like meal preparation, hygiene, and housekeeping.
✅ Ensure medication is properly managed and documented.
✅ Encourage personal growth by facilitating social activities and skill-building opportunities.
✅ Accurately document progress and communicate updates to the team.
✅ Drive residents to appointments, community events, and recreational activities.
✅ Actively engage in problem-solving and be flexible when challenges arise.
✅ Be a team player—reliable, punctual, and willing to step up when needed.
