Job description

A rewarding work from home position providing companionship, friendship, and support to individuals with Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities (IDD).

You can make a fulfilling difference in someone’s life by bringing them into your home and assisting with independent living skills and daily activities.

Shared Living is a Residential Service that CLASS provides to Intellectually/Developmentally Disabled adults who are on the IDD waiver. CLASS will match up an individual (the client) with a Shared Living Contractor (SLC—you) whose interests are similar. The client would live in your home and pay toward rent/utilities/food/etc. You would provide Residential Services and help the client with training, assistance, or supervision in areas such as:

Bathing/Dressing

Personal Grooming

Oral Care

Household Chores/Home Maintenance

Meal Plan/Prep/Clean Up

Shopping

Communication/Telephone

Laundry

Use of Appliances

To apply, you must reside in the state of Kansas and attend an Orientation meeting to explain what Shared Living is, the process to become a SLC, the roles and responsibilities, and review of required documentation. After Orientation, you will complete an application and a Personal Preferences Agreement so CLASS can match you with a compatible client. However, this is not a first come, first served process, as CLASS wants to ensure the best possible fit for you, your family, and the individual served!

Requirements:

Everyone over the age of 18 who lives in the SLC home must pass the required background checks listed below:

Adult Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation Central Registry

Child Abuse and Neglect Central Registry

KDADS/KBI/Health Occupations Credentialing (HOC)/Criminal Record Check

KDHE/KDADS/Kansas Nurse Aide Registry

Abuse/Neglect/Exploitation

Rights and Responsibilities

First Aid/CPR

Fire Safety, Blood Borne Pathogens

Medication Administration Supervision/Refresher

Emergency Preparedness

Service Log Documentation (One-time training)

HIPAA Training (One-time training)

Any other Client Related Trainings as determined by the Person-Centered Support Planning Team

MANDT

Universal Enhancements (One-time training)

Person Centered Thinking (One-time training)

Training is provided by CLASS at no cost to SLCs.

Shared Living Contractors will also have at least (1) individual to be on their Backup Plan. Backup Contractors must complete background checks, training, and recertifications. BCs must be available to effectively provide residential services for the client in case of an emergency, or other short-term care situations (e.g. vacation). CLASS LTD will work with the SLC to establish a Backup Plan.

Not ready to commit to becoming a Shared Living Contractor? Become a Backup Contractor instead!

CLASS serves individuals in Southeast Kansas in the four counties of Crawford, Cherokee, Labette, and Montgomery. Contractors and Backup Contractors must reside in the state of Kansas in one of the four counties listed.

Salary varies depending on the level of care and support the individual needs. A typical range of salary is TBD.

Please contact Abby Moerer Director of Shared Living at 620-429-1212 ext # 144 or abby.moerer@classltd.org for more information.
