Keep the Home Safe, Supported, and Ready for the Day Ahead

The Arc of Ocean County is seeking Overnight Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) to provide awake overnight support to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities living in residential homes in Ocean County, New Jersey.

Overnight staff play an important role in maintaining continuity of care when the rest of the household is asleep. You'll remain awake and attentive throughout the 11:00 PM–9:00 AM shift, monitor individual well-being, respond to needs and unexpected situations, complete required documentation, and help prepare the home and individuals for the morning.

This position is well suited to someone who is dependable, observant, comfortable working independently, and committed to creating a safe and respectful home environment.

What Your Overnight Shift May Include

Stay Alert to Safety & Wellness

  • Maintain attentive overnight supervision to support the health, safety, and well-being of individuals in the residence.
  • Complete required hourly status checks and other overnight monitoring responsibilities.
  • Respond promptly and professionally to emergencies, medical concerns, and unexpected situations.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
