Direct Support Professional (Day Hours)

Direct Support Professional (DSP) – Community Inclusion

Integrity Supports & Services, LLC | Omaha, NE
$20.00–$22.00 per hour

GET PAID TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE — AND HAVE FUN DOING IT!

Are you the person who brings energy into a room? Do you enjoy getting out in the community, trying new things, helping others, and making work FUN?

Integrity Supports & Services (ISS) is looking for energetic, dependable, and positive Direct Support Professionals to join our Community Inclusion team!

This is not a sit-around-and-watch job.

Our participants deserve staff who are present, engaged, creative, and excited to help them experience their community, build relationships, develop skills, and have meaningful days.

One day might include bowling, volunteering, shopping, visiting a museum, exploring a community event, working toward an individual goal, or trying something completely new. Other times, you'll help create engaging activities at our center based on what participants enjoy.

If you're someone who can make an ordinary day better, we want to meet you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Support adults with developmental disabilities in living active and meaningful lives
• Get participants OUT into the Omaha community
• Participate in community outings, events, recreation, volunteering, shopping, and other experiences
• Create and participate in fun and meaningful activities at our center
• Learn what matters to each participant—their interests, preferences, goals, strengths, and support needs
• Encourage independence, choice, confidence, socialization, and skill development
• Actively engage with participants throughout the day
• Help participants work toward their individual goals
• Provide transportation and community support as assigned
• Complete required documentation accurately and on time
• Follow participant-specific plans, safety protocols, behavioral supports, and ISS policies
• Work together with your team to make each day successful

WHO WE WANT

We're looking for people who are:

POSITIVE – Your attitude matters. You help create the environment around you.

ENGAGED – You don't spend the day sitting on your phone while participants sit nearby.

DEPENDABLE – Participants and coworkers are counting on you to show up.

FUN – You're willing to participate, laugh, be creative, and make activities enjoyable.

PATIENT & KIND – You understand that everyone communicates, learns, and experiences the world differently.

ACTIVE – You're comfortable being on the go and participating in activities throughout the day.

A TEAM PLAYER – You help coworkers, communicate, and contribute instead of saying, “That's not my job.”

PERSON-CENTERED – You understand that the adults we support have their own choices, preferences, personalities, relationships, goals, and rights.

WHAT WE DON'T WANT

We're probably not the right fit if you're looking for a job where you can:

• Sit back and simply supervise
• Spend your shift on your personal phone
• Wait for someone to tell you every little thing that needs to be done
• Avoid participating in activities
• Bring negativity or drama into the workplace

We can teach many of the skills required to be a great DSP. We can't teach someone to care.

PAY

$20.00–$22.00 per hour

Starting pay is based on experience, qualifications, and ability to meet the responsibilities of the position.

EXPERIENCE

Previous DSP or developmental disability experience is great—but the right personality, work ethic, dependability, and attitude matter to us.

Experience in caregiving, healthcare, education, childcare, behavioral health, recreation, coaching, human services, or other people-focused positions may also be a great fit.

WHY ISS?

At Integrity Supports & Services, we believe Community Inclusion should actually mean INCLUSION.

Our goal isn't simply to keep participants busy.

We want the people we support to have opportunities to experience their community, make choices, build relationships, learn new skills, try new things, laugh, have fun, and live meaningful lives.

And we want employees who are excited to be part of making that happen.

Think you'd be a great fit?
