What is a Direct Support Professional (DSP)? DSP's provide support and care to individuals living with intellectual disabilities and autism. We encourage consumers to lead independent lives and help them integrate into their community. Some common job duties could include assisting with life skills, companion care, some personal hygiene, as well as taking the individual out into the community for activities.
Do you have a loved one that needs support? We also feel you shouldn't have to choose between going to work or caring for your loved one. With Care For People Plus, we can help you achieve both. Contact us for more information on how you can contract with us to provide support to your loved one living with IDD/Autism!
