Wall Residences strives to address the preferences and needs of each individual that is referred to our agency. Staff will spend time with potential providers determining what interests the potential provider has, as well as their experience level. This information is compiled and available vacancies are posted on our website, as well as distributed to various referral sources. When Wall Residences is contacted with a potential referral, staff evaluates this information and determines potential successful matches at that point. Waiting for the right match can take some time and there are no guarantees; however our potential providers are important to us and Wall Residences strives to make matches that will be ensure long term success.

Wall Residences takes pride in our well trained providers. If you do not have previous experience providing support to people with disabilities then you will be required to seek opportunities working as a back up worker to gain agency specific experience. This type of experience allows training according to our policies, procedures, and documentation requirements, as well as working one on one with individuals in our services. This also aids in potential providers staying up to date with necessary trainings, as well as broadening their experience level. Wall Residences also offers provider orientation trainings to help potential providers know what to expect.
Required training is transferable as long as you have the certificate of the class with the instructor’s signature, date the class was taken, and date when the training expires.
If documentation of previous TB screenings are provided and there has been no disruption in care then this is also transferable.
Wall Residences offers many of the required classes. Visit our training calendar for more information. Register for a class by contacting the Program Manager you are working with or our training department. First aid and CPR classes can be taken through your local American Heart Association or Red Cross agencies.
