- I implement treatment strategies by facilitating drug and alcohol education, social skills development, and structured group activities that promote accountability, emotional regulation, positive decision-making, and pro-social behavior. I actively engage and motivate youth in treatment participation and serve as a consistent role model by reinforcing expectations through problem-solving with clear professional boundaries. I supervise juveniles to ensure compliance with institutional policies, schedules, and behavioral expectations while protecting individual rights. I monitor youth health and wellbeing, provide first aid, promptly report medical or safety concerns, and intervene in confrontations or unsafe behaviors using approved de-escalation and intervention techniques to prevent injury and maintain order. I provide appropriate input to the treatment team to support ongoing assessment of treatment strategies and accurately document behaviors, incidents, and progress in accordance with professional guidelines. I transport and supervise juveniles during appointments, community-based activities, searches, and off-site movements while maintaining security and professionalism. I respond to emergencies including evacuation and physical intervention and adapt to working rotating shifts, weekends, and high-stress environments with appropriate judgment, situational awareness, and emotional control.
