At Compass Rose

Care, "that’s not my job" is not something we say. Neither is "it’s not in the care plan so I can’t." When something comes up that falls outside your scope or your plan, the answer is: "Let me see what I can do." Then you call your supervisor if you’re unsure. We will always be reachable.We want someone who:

- Has the skills and experience to work with complex physical and emotional care needs
- Knows how to use mechanical lifts, transfer boards, and assistive devices safely and confidently
- Can build a respectful, qualified relationship with a client and their family
- Reads clinical situations well and knows when something has changed
- Is self-directed and does not need constant prompting to stay on task
- Communicates clearly and professionally with team members and supervisors
- Is highly motivated and brings a positive, grounded presence to the work
- Is flexible with routines and can adapt when things shift
- Is willing and able to drive regularly as needed
