Pluspunten
Two and a half day block shifts with four and a half days off. Lots of opportunities for overtime if you are willing and able to do it.
Minpunten
You are expected to stay overnight without pay at the individuals home. Coworkers and supervisors can be very unproffesional with their interactions with individuals and other staff. There are a lot of cliques, crossing boundaries, and inappropriate relationships between support staff and supervisors so when a long time DSP is crossing boundaries, not doing their job accordingly or working well with other co-workers the supervisors will often times ignore your concerns about a co-worker. There is a lot of bullying and work place harrassment that goes on among co-workers and if you report it to a supervisor you are considered to be the whiner, nothing gets fixed, and the work place harrassment continues. Most of InVisions clients have very significant mental health challenges and can be a danger to themselves and staff so, when you are by yourself in a crisis at work you will receive very little support from an emergency on-call supervisor. Due to the significant mental health challenges of some individuals and the long block shifts their is a very high turn over rate so good luck with finding long term stable, rewarding employment with this organization.
