Independent Respite Workers (Contract)
$20 - $30 per hourInclusion Yukon
Are you looking for some extra hours here and there? Open to occasional contracts? Have experience in childcare or care giving? Available during the day or evenings or weekends? Apply to our Respite Matching program!
Inclusion Yukon is a non-profit with a vision of inclusion and advocacy. We exist to provide services to support persons with intellectual disabilities and their families.
Position Responsibilities:
-We are looking for Respite workers who have daytime, evening or weekend availability during the week who are looking for part-time work
-Preferred if candidates have their own method of transportation and can drive clients if necessary
-Skilled caregivers who are reliable, independent and keen to work with a range of different people with intellectual and physical disabilities.
Overview of Program:
The Independent Respite Worker Matching program works to connect families and caregivers to skilled care workers that can provide respite care for individuals that may be neurodiverse, have physical disabilities, be on the spectrum of disability or may need extra support in general. A key aspect of receiving quality respite care is that families/caregivers can feel safe, comfortable and confident that the person they are caring for is being well supported by their Independent Respite Worker (IRW).
The Independent Respite Matching Program matches qualified Independent Respite Workers that have the required skills and experiences requested, to the appropriate families/caregivers. The Respite Coordinator maintains an up to date database of qualified Independent Respite Workers that can be contacted when requests for respite care are made. Independent Respite Workers are their own contractors , set their own rates, manage their contracts and are accountable to the families and/or caregivers. Inclusion Yukon strives to make a match within two weeks of receiving a respite request, dependent on the Respite Workers schedules, skills/experience, and if they can accommodate the requests of the family. Inclusion Yukon continuously updates the database of available respite workers and receives regular requests from caregivers.
Qualified Independent Respite Workers do contracts with families looking for respite care within their own home, the community, potentially the Respite Worker’s home, or a combination of these. If you are flexible, qualified, and passionate about working with people with disabilities; this casual position could be right for you!
