Full-time • Entry Level
Spokane, WA

Excel Supported Living's mission is to support the individuals in our direct care to reach their true potential beyond anyone’s expectations. We grew out of a desire to establish a professional agency based in Eastern Washington to support individuals with mental, physiological, behavioral, physical, and developmental disabilities, and we want them to be able to live in their own homes. The entire focus of Excel Supported Living is to create individual homes with an environment built specifically for each of our individuals/residents. Our homes allow individuals to make their own choices related to living and interacting with others within their home and their communities. Supported living is not the same as assisted living. The Direct Support Professional (DSP) plays a pivotal role in enhancing the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities by providing compassionate, person-centered care that promotes independence and dignity. This position goes far beyond assisting with daily activities—it's about empowering individuals to live meaningful, fulfilling lives while fostering personal growth and development. As a DSP, you become a vital part of a team that makes a profound difference, not only in the lives of those you support but also in your own life. Through this rewarding career, you will engage in impactful, transformative work that creates lasting change. DSPs are expected to uphold the highest standards of care, adhering to Excel Supported Living, Inc.'s policies and procedures, as well as relevant WAC and RCW regulations, to ensure the best possible outcomes for the individuals we serve. This is more than just a job—it's a chance to make a lasting impact in your community while growing both professionally and personally.
