A shared living provider is the central, most important role a person can be in our services. It takes a very special and caring heart to open up one’s house and one’s life to a person who needs a place to call home.
To be clear, this is a 24/7 commitment and like any co-living situation, there will be hard days and there will be times when a home provider realizes that he/she has made a lifelong connection and made someone’s life one that is full of hope and possibility.
We all need a home, and we all need to be cared for.
Join our team as a Shared Living Provider for the opportunity help a person live their best life and avoid having to live in a care facility. You would be the lead caregiver, with access to community supports, supported employment and respite. You must rent or own your house or apartment where you and the participant will reside. The position requires transportation to and from medical appointments, community outings and check-ins throughout the day.
At GMSS we use Person Centered Thinking Practices to help individuals have positive control and choice about the services they receive and the settings in which they live. The SLP will be supported with a tax-free Difficulty of Care stipend, training, and a respite budget. A negotiated Room & Board payment is also paid by the participant. Clean background checks and a home safety inspection are required prior to contracting. A clean driving record, a valid Vermont driver’s license, as well as homeowner or renter’s liability insurance are required. EOE. Annual Compensation $65,000-$75,000. Share Living Providers are contracted and not eligible for benefits.
