IDD Day Program Supervisor
About The Position
RHA Health Services is hiring an IDD Day Program Supervisor to supervise Direct Support Professionals and coordinate the operations, staffing, and budget of assigned facilities. The role focuses on understanding the people supported in the context of their personal histories, social and family networks, and hopes for the future, while ensuring their home and yard are clean and maintained. The supervisor also performs direct-care duties, including personal hygiene, meal preparation, and implementing goals, and provides after-hours and on-call coverage as part of the direct-care rotation. The position requires a high school diploma or equivalent and at least one year of experience working with people with developmental disabilities. A flexible schedule and availability for on-call coverage are required. The employee must be qualified as a Habilitation Technician II (med certified), or eligible to receive that designation at the first available training after accepting the position. CPR, first aid, NCI, and/or MedTech certification is a plus.

The role has physical requirements that include regularly lifting and carrying up to 20 pounds, occasionally pulling at least 40 pounds, performing a range of movements, standing and walking for extended periods, and demonstrating CPR proficiency from floor level. Pre-employment screening includes criminal background and registry checks, drug testing, and education and credential verification; employment history or references may also be required.
