✨ This position is for an Agency Respite Care Provider system to support individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Respite is short-term care that gives the primary caregiver a break. While the caregiver steps away to rest, run errands, or attend appointments, you stay with the client in the home or sometimes in the community, providing supervision and support. Day to day, that looks like engaging with the client based on their needs, following safe family routines, keeping the client safe, and accurately recording your hours within the family's approved respite authorization.
