Job Description
About this Career Opportunity Are you searching for work that fits well in your life? Work that has meaning? Would you like to work on a team where we support one another like family? Do you want some variety in your job yet some consistency and routine? At Star Choices, we are a family and a team. We assist and support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their home and in their community. We work hard everyday to support them in finding their joy and living the life they choose. That means providing the support that is just right for each person. We empower people to practice independent living skills while encouraging and teaching new ones. We are searching for people to join our team of Direct Support Professionals to make a difference in the lives of the people we support. Shifts begin each day at 7am - and last until 7:30pm or 7pm - 7:30am. (24/7/365). Number of shifts to work each week two to three during 6 month probationary period (able to pick up 4th shifts after 6 months). Meals provided during shifts. Let's Be Honest About This Job Being a DSP is not always easy. It can be challenging, demanding, unpredictable, and sometimes exhausting. The people we support are real people with real personalities, preferences, emotions, strengths, and bad days. Some have complex needs or behaviors that require patience, consistency, creativity, and a good sense of humor. You may walk into work with a plan and have that plan completely change five minutes later. You may have a difficult day. You may leave work tired. And then there are the really good days. You might watch someone learn something they couldn't do before. You might help someone try something new, make a friend, get a job, become more independent, or do something they've been working toward for months. You might spend your day laughing, going into the community, playing games, listening to music, shopping, eating lunch, or doing something completely unexpected. And sometimes, something that seems small to everyone else will feel like a huge accomplishment to you—because you know how hard that person worked to get there. That's what makes this job rewarding. What We're Looking For We aren't looking for someone who is perfect. We're looking for someone who is dependable, patient, teachable, responsible, and genuinely interested in people. You need to be able to: Show up consistently and be someone others can count on. Stay calm and professional when things get difficult. Follow through on your responsibilities. Communicate with your team and your supervisor. Complete documentation accurately and on time. Respect the people we support as adults—with their own choices, preferences, rights, and personalities. Encourage independence instead of simply doing things for someone. Be willing to learn, accept feedback, and grow. If you want work that is challenging, fun, meaningful, and genuinely makes a difference in someone's life, we'd love to meet you. Being a DSP isn't just about helping someone get through their day. It's about helping someone have a life.
