Job Coach Position
We are currently looking for someone who works independently, works well with other, is responsible, patient, has the ability to problem solve and has great decision-making skills. The applicant will be working with a person with a disability in the Community. A drivers license would be beneficial, as some method of transportation will be needed to get to and from the job. We are currently looking for someone in Regina. The hours are undetermined at this point but will be at least part time. There may potentially be more positions available soon.
A job coach's job is to work one on one with the individual to learn the necessary tasks of the job until the individual and the job coach feel the individual is ready to work independently with all tasks. It is then the job coach's responsibility to work themselves out of the job. A job coach bridges the gap between training for a job and being comfortable with a job. Aside from providing one to one support, a job coach can help other people in the workplace become natural supports. Typically, a job coach will work for about 2 -4 months but each individual is different in the level of support needed so this could change.
You can expect a job coach to:
* Identify tasks pertaining to the position
* Sort tasks in priority
* Identify areas for accommodation
* Assist only when needed and begin training task-by task
* Orient the individual to the workplace (with the employer if
possible):
* The physical layout (bathroom, lunchroom, office, etc.)
* Introduction to co-workers, customers and employers
* Review of the safety rules and company rules
A Police Record Check with Vulnerable section will be required when applicant is chosen.
