Are you the calm one when things get tense? Join Sevita and help people with developmental disabilities and complex behavioral needs feel safe, build trust, and live more independent, connected lives. This role is for someone who stays steady, follows a plan, and sees progress where others see a hard day.

+ Paid training and certification: we give you the tools and training to succeed
+ Comprehensive benefits for full-time team members working 32+ hours, including medical, dental, vision, and a 401(k) with up to 3% company match
+ Paid time off plus holiday pay
+ Room to grow into leadership roles
+ $500 referral bonus for every eligible hire you refer
+ Supportive supervisors who care about the people we support and about you
What You'll Do
+ Support people with complex behavioral needs, following each person's support plan closely and consistently
+ Stay calm and respond with patience when situations escalate, helping people feel safe and regain control
+ Notice what triggers stress for each person and what helps them succeed, and share it with your team
+ Help people work toward goals like budgeting, exercise, and healthy eating
+ Assist with personal care, including hygiene, with dignity and respect
+ Give medications safely once you're certified

What We're Looking For
