Leveraging your strong organizational skills, you track and record each individual’s progress as well as strengths and needs. You share all documentation with team members to ensure that everyone is informed of the progress being made. Some of the paperwork you complete includes progress notes, Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) documentation, Individual Service Plan (ISP) documentation, incident reports, and wage reports.
As an advocate, you promote economic independence for everyone you work with. You enthusiastically assist with job exploration and career planning. You learn the staffing needs of local businesses and match those companies up with the individuals you serve. Implementing long-term supports and extended services, you ensure that both individual and employer needs are being met over time. You feel great about the part you play in providing staffing for local businesses as well as empowering individuals within our community!
