Job Description

Your Next Chapter: A Fulfilling Career with Purpose (Paid Training)

Location:

Are you in a new phase of life—an empty nester, semi-retired, or just tired of the 9-to-5 corporate grind? Are you searching for a "second act" career that offers real purpose, flexibility, and a way to give back to your community?

If you're ready for a new vocational focus, we invite you to join AboundHealth. We are looking for compassionate, organized, and reliable individuals to become Direct Support Professionals (DSPs), supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

We Believe in Your Experience. You may be wondering if you're "qualified." We believe you are. If you've been a parent, an office manager, a teacher, a volunteer, or a team leader, you already have the core skills we value most:

  • Patience and Empathy
  • Creative Problem-Solving
  • Organization and Adaptability
  • Strong Communication and Interpersonal Skills

We can teach you the rest. We provide 100% paid, comprehensive training to give you all the technical skills and certifications you need for a new and fulfilling career.

The AboundHealth Difference AboundHealth is a company built on a "Us and We" culture, where we believe in empowering both our clients and our staff. We offer a structured, professional, and supportive environment perfect for someone re-entering the workforce or starting a new chapter. We value your life experience and we are committed to your success.

A Day in the Life (Your New Purpose) As a DSP, you'll partner with individuals to help them live more independent, community-focused lives. Your day might include:

  • Mentoring someone on life skills, like cooking, cleaning, or managing a budget.
  • Providing transportation to a job, a doctor's appointment, or a community event like a cooking class or a swim meet.
  • Providing companionship and emotional support, perhaps watching a movie, engaging in conversation, or helping with an evening routine.
  • Helping someone achieve their personal goals, like learning a new skill or building new friendships.

What We Give Back (Our Commitment to You)

  • 100% Paid Training & Certification! We invest in your new career.
  • Flexible Schedules: Full-time and part-time roles to fit your life.
  • $1,000 Signing Bonus!
  • Solid Benefits and Paid Time Off
  • A Welcoming Team: We celebrate what makes us different.

About Abound Health

At Abound Health, we empower people—clients, families, and staff—to live fulfilling and enriched lives. For over 20 years, we have been a trusted partner for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families, providing personalized services and supports that promote independence, dignity, and growth.

 

Our journey began when founders Janet and Rusty sought quality care for their son with autism. Their personal mission became a larger movement to deliver high-quality, person-centered services to those who need it most. Today, under the leadership of siblings Jenna and Dennis, who joined Abound Health in 2020 to make a meaningful impact, we serve over 2,500 clients across North Carolina, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Our dedicated team of 3,000 professionals works tirelessly to create environments of care, support, and empowerment.

 

We are proud to grow through a strategic acquisition model, seamlessly integrating new teams and services to expand our reach while maintaining our core values. At Abound Health, we believe in the power of community, respect, and opportunity. Whether we’re empowering individuals with I/DD to achieve their goals or supporting our dedicated staff, we strive to make every moment impactful.

Join us in building a world where empowerment isn’t just a mission—it’s a way of life.
