The Person We Are Looking For Think about the teacher, counselor, mentor, or professional who made people feel comfortable, respected, and capable. Someone who could correct behavior without humiliating anyone. Someone who remained calm when another person became frustrated. Someone who communicated clearly and respectfully. Someone who recognized strengths instead of focusing only on limitations. Someone people genuinely enjoyed being around. That is the type of professional we want at Eagle. Our consumers are adults and must always be treated as adults. We expect every staff member to communicate with consumers with respect, dignity, patience, and professionalism at all times. What Is Psychosocial Rehabilitation? Psychosocial Rehabilitation helps adults living with serious mental-health conditions improve their ability to function successfully in their homes, communities, relationships, and everyday lives. Rather than simply supervising consumers, Eagle PSR staff actively help individuals develop practical skills that increase independence, confidence, stability, and quality of life.

You may teach, facilitate, coach, or assist with areas including: Independent living skills Communication skills Social skills Coping strategies Emotional regulation Goal setting Problem solving Community integration Employment readiness Computer and technology skills Financial literacy and budgeting Healthy relationships Personal wellness Nutrition Cooking and meal preparation Recreation and fitness Arts and creative activities Music Educational activities Personal organization Time management Self-advocacy Recovery-oriented skills Daily routines and healthy habits You will also: Facilitate individual and group PSR activities Build positive professional relationships with consumers Encourage consumer participation and independence Redirect inappropriate behavior calmly and respectfully Assist consumers with developing and pursuing individualized goals Observe changes in consumer functioning or behavior Communicate concerns appropriately to clinical leadership Complete accurate service documentation Follow consumer treatment plans and program guidelines Participate in staff meetings, supervision, and professional development Maintain professional boundaries and confidentiality Help create a welcoming, engaging, adult-centered PSR environment QP Development Track Eagle Healthcare Services wants to develop its future Qualified Professionals (QPs) internally.
