Entry Level

HOME SHARE CONTRACTOR

At Pacific Coast Community Resources, we have provided personalized services to people living with diverse abilities since 1987. Today we offer our services throughout many communities in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, the Okanagan, and the Kootenays. We offer a wide range of dynamic and comprehensive programs and are committed to:

The values and principles of inclusive community living
Providing person-centered services that respect the person’s choice and dignity
Ensuring cultural diversity and lifestyle choices are recognized and incorporated when developing supports
Empowering people with disabilities to live the life they envision

Home Sharing is a residential option that provides safe, nurturing, community-based, shared living arrangements for adults with diverse abilities. The service is provided through you, the contractors, who welcome a person into their home, offering a warm, inclusive environment and customized, person-centred support. A supported person will live in unique and varied family care arrangements such as sharing a house, or an apartment or living in a suite within the home. This model of support creates opportunities for natural relationships to develop and promotes the full citizenship of the person through inclusion within their community. A Home Share Provider may assist with life skills, meal preparation, personal care, medication administration, relationship building, and accessing community resources. The key to a successful, long-term arrangement is matching a person with a Home Share Provider based on a variety of factors including personality, lifestyle, and interests.

Home Sharing offers people who need support the opportunity to choose their ideal caregivers and determine the lifestyle and environment that best suits their unique interests, support requirements, and preferences.

What we look for in our Home Share Contractors:

Commitment to the values and principles of inclusive community living
Previous experience fostering and supporting a person with diverse abilities
Sincere desire to provide a stable, safe, comfortable, and inclusive home
Good problem solving/communication skills and the ability to be flexible, adaptable, organized, and accepting

Home Share candidates undergo a comprehensive screening process which includes reference and criminal record checks as well as an in-depth home study. Home share arrangements are monitored regularly and ongoing training and support are provided, including MANDT, Medication Administration, privacy training, First Aid/CPR re-certification, and more.
