Direct Support Professional | Helping People Live Meaningful, Independent Lives

Wellspring Lutheran Servies -- Bethesda Homes | Per Diem | Hourly $17.13

You chose this work because you believe every person deserves the opportunity to live a meaningful life.

You understand that true support is about more than helping with daily tasks. It's about building relationships, encouraging independence, celebrating accomplishments, and helping people pursue the goals and experiences that matter most to them.

You entered this field because you wanted a career where compassion, connection, and purpose come together every day.

At Bethesda at Wellspring, we're looking for Direct Support Professionals who are passionate about empowering individuals to live with dignity, independence, and choice.

As a Direct Support Professional, you'll provide support to individuals in a residential setting, helping them achieve personal goals, participate in meaningful activities, and experience the highest possible quality of life. You'll be an important part of their daily routines, celebrations, challenges, and successes.

Most importantly, you'll help people live the lives they choose for themselves.

What Your Impact Will Look Like

You'll build meaningful relationships with the individuals you support, getting to know their strengths, interests, preferences, and goals.

You'll help people develop independence and confidence by encouraging participation in daily activities and supporting them in ways that honor their abilities and choices.

You'll assist with personal care, meal preparation, medication administration, appointments, and other daily routines while treating each person with dignity and respect.

You'll help create opportunities for meaningful experiences through community outings, activities, hobbies, appointments, and social engagement.

You'll contribute to Individual Support Plans by sharing observations, celebrating achievements, and helping identify opportunities for growth and success.

You'll help create a safe, welcoming, and healthy home environment where individuals feel supported, valued, and connected.

Some days you'll be helping someone learn a new skill, attend a favorite activity, or accomplish a personal goal. Other days you'll be providing hands-on support, sharing conversations over meals, accompanying someone to an appointment, or simply being a trusted and encouraging presence.

Every day, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in someone's life.

Why This Role Matters

The individuals we serve deserve more than care.

They deserve opportunities to grow, make choices, build relationships, participate in their communities, and pursue lives filled with meaning and purpose.

As a Direct Support Professional, you'll help make those opportunities possible. Through encouragement, support, and genuine connection, you'll help individuals build confidence, maintain independence, and experience a greater quality of life.

The impact of your work extends far beyond any single task. It helps people live fuller, richer lives.

The Person We're Looking For

You genuinely enjoy helping others succeed.

You believe every person deserves dignity, respect, and opportunity.

You are patient, compassionate, and dependable.

You enjoy building meaningful relationships.

You are flexible and adaptable to individual needs.

You work well independently and as part of a team.

You want a career where your work has purpose
