Youth Care Professional

4 months ago

Denton, United States Everstand Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description


What is this job?

As a Youth Care Worker, you would provide mentorship, coaching, and support to a young person, aged 14 - 20 years old, in a therapeutic residential setting.

You would be part of a larger team working together to organize and run programming activities, ensuring the daily schedule of each child meets their goals, assisting with transports to school and offsite appointments (using agency vehicles), and modeling life skill-building activities such as preparing meals and doing mock interviews for jobs.

What is this company?

Overstand is not a federal or state agency. It is an independent not-for-profit organization that is focused on serving children and their families. It has evolved and adapted from orphanages opened 150 years ago to being a leader in providing high-quality behavioral health, educational, and residential services across the Mid-Atlantic.

What does a Youth Care Worker do specifically?

Depending on which shift you’re working, here is what you can expect.

When the youth are awake you would:

  • Document daily activities and happenings in the living unit within Everstand's electronic health record system.
  • Accurately administer medication according to physician and or nurses' orders. Document the medication administration record (MAR). [All of Everstand's MD staff have the opportunity to become certified medication technicians.]
  • Help implement each youth’s treatment plan (every child at Everstand has one – it’s a list of goals they’re working on while they’re at Everstand).
  • Coach kids on cleanliness and orderliness in their personal hygiene, living unit and the surrounding grounds.
  • Report any medical needs.
  • Support the youth in their day to day routine.
  • Provides safe transportation (in Everstand vehicles) for scheduled appointments.
  • Conduct inventories for resident belongings upon admission, discharge, and on a quarterly basis. They are all growing teens - you'll help them purchase new clothing once per quarter.
  • Engage the youth in whatever is on the living unit’s schedule. Play games, facilitate getting calls or video visits set up with their families or other stakeholders, etc.
  • Ensure the youth are dressed in weather and activity-appropriate clothing. Generally, during your shift, you'll always spend a little time outside (weather permitting), like throwing a football around or taking a therapeutic walk.
  • Prepare and enjoy meals together as a living unit.

While the youth are asleep you would:

  • Complete bed checks for every resident every fifteen minutes to thirty minutes.
  • Finish any laundry and cleaning tasks to get ready for the next day.

Generally, as a part of the team you will:

  • Complete a unit inspection checklist (all shifts perform this task) to make sure everything is working, supplies are stocked, and the space is safe and well-lit. Report needs to facilities department.
  • Rotate in the on-call coverage schedule.
  • Foster an atmosphere of collaborative problem-solving among residents and co-workers.
  • Provide documentation of behaviors, goals, and positive outcomes for each youth.
  • Have a trauma informed mindset.
  • Complete required training and RCYCP certification in a timely manner.

This isn't an exhaustive list of responsibilities, but we hope it gives you a feel for what your day might be like.

What shifts would I work? Are full-time positions available?

  • We are hiring for FULL TIME (40 hours a week) positions with benefits
  • Most of our staff work four days a week, either front-end (Sunday through Wednesday) or back-end (Wednesday through Saturday) with some flexibility needed. We are a 24 hour group home.
  • We have afternoon/evening, and overnight shifts available.

Do I need any prior experience?

NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IN DIRECT CARE / CHILD CARE NECESSARY We will train you and get you certified in everything you need for this role.

Preferred:

Minimum of one-year group home experience.

Required Education

  • High School Diploma

Preferred Education

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Human Services, Social Work, Psychology, or related degree.

Other Job Requirements
