Job Descriptions
There are four primary positions among our Direct Support Services staff. By clicking on the job titles listed below, you will be able to download a description of the position including duties, responsibilities, and qualifications.
Langley Residential is an equal opportunity employer. State and county licensure guidelines require LRSS employees to receive and maintain training and other certifications pre- and post-employment.
All candidates must demonstrate the required skills and education necessary to perform the job, have an uneventful driving record, possess a valid driver's license, and be able to pass a criminal background check and social services background check.
After a person is hired, in addition to meeting Langley Residential’s high job performance standards, specific training classes must be completed within the first 180 days of employment unless otherwise noted. Please click here to see a list of required post-employment training.
Certification must be kept current, so there will be additional training required over the course of the staff member’s employment with LRSS. Because the training is required under state licensure guidelines, instruction will be provided by or paid for by Langley Residential.
