Night watch - PT (Tuesday and Wednesday Nights)
About The Position
The Night Watch Mentor supports the residential department and the students during the night hours. This includes checking on students every 15 minutes, ensuring they are able to sleep in a safe environment, supporting students if they wake up during the night and helping them return to bed, waking students up in the morning, and completing light cleaning duties. This is a great opportunity for those who are looking for a low key and easy going position, like students attending college, or those who have night classes (we allow our graveyard employees to do homework, study, and or other projects as long as all job duties are completed), or even for parents who have students in school during the morning hours. The company uses an attachment-based approach to therapeutic and residential support, focusing on helping students build healthy relationships and address core issues behind their behaviors and thoughts.
