Description

Shared Living Providers (SLP) are independent contractors who provide residential supports in the SLPs own home for individuals with developmental disabilities. If you are looking for a career where you can be a part of achieving positive outcomes for others, then our Shared Living Provider program may be for you.

The primary responsibility of an SLP is to maintain a safe and healthy home environment for the individual supported. SLPs have basic home support and related responsibilities, which include providing/supporting nutritional meals; providing transportation to appointments, to and from day services and recreational activities; providing/supporting access to community activities, cultural and religious services, if appropriate, and providing up to 24-hour supervision and supports as outlined in the individuals Individual Support Plan (ISP). The daily home routine should be based on the Individuals choice but structured as determined by the Individual and ISP team which is helpful to the Individual supported in learning to function independently in a home and community setting. The SLP is responsible for teaching and supporting the Individual's life choices, hopes and dreams, and daily documentation of that teaching.

Individuals with a developmental disability are matched with trained Share Living Providers who share the same interests and hobbies as the person seeking supports. The size of the home, all who live in the home (family size/kids/animals), and the location of the home are all influences on if the individual and their family are interested in meeting with a potential candidate.
