Looking for motivated, personable individual to work part-time weekdays in a mental health group home.

Duties include light meal prep, light cleaning, driving to appointments, outings, activities, and generally engaging with residents on both a one-to-one and small group basis.

Clients are mostly independent and mobile, needing help with general day-to-day tasks including: appointment bookings, transfers, organizational, motivational, socializing, some self-care (eg. laundry), and medication reminders/witnessing (clients self-administer).

Society has own van however a valid driver's licence is required.

This group home is high-bar so no active addictions or aggressive clientele. We are long-term, not transitional housing, with capacity for 14 individuals (currently 10 on-site).

We are seeking a mature, responsible, patient, empathetic, and friendly individual who understands the importance of the motivational role in a mental health setting.
