A habilitation technician is a paraprofessional work assisting in the management of a residential facility for developmentally disabled clients. Employees are responsible for supervising staff, interviewing and screening clients for admission to the program, determining basic client needs through administering a variety of basic assessments, developing and implementing limited goal plans for clients through consultation with other staff. Employees prepare limited progress notes, coordinate leisure, social, and recreational activities, administer medications, arrange for client transportation and provide supportive counseling. While the majority of employee’s time is spent in providing direct client services, a significant amount of time is spent in administration and supervision, either on an extended shift basis or in the absence of the residential manager. Work is differentiated from the Habilitation assistant level by the administrative and supervisory responsibilities. Employees usually report to a Habilitation Specialist or Program Manager.
