Open Interviews
Offering a neutral meeting place for people looking for a position as a Personal Care Attendant to meet with Consumer Supervisors in the CDPAS Program.
Consumer Directed Personal Assistant Services:
CDPAS allows individuals with disabilities requiring personal care the opportunity to supervise their own attendant services. The Consumer Supervisor assumes all of the responsibilities associated with being an employer; however, CDR processes attendant payroll and bills Medicaid on the consumer’s behalf for all CDPAS services received.
For Individuals Who Want to Become Attendants:
Attendants are not required to have prior training or experience to apply for a position with any Supervisor. Some possible responsibilities may include bathing, dressing, cooking, cleaning, feeding, medication management, etc. Benefits include earning Vacation & Sick Pay, 401k, and Supervisors often offer very flexible schedules.
For Supervisors:
Supervisors or Designated Representatives are responsible for recruiting, interviewing, screening, hiring, training, scheduling, disciplining, and potentially terminating their Attendants.
For more information, or to attend Open Interviews, contact your Supervisor Support Specialist.

About Center for Disability Rights:
Center for Disability Rights, CDR, does not “hire” the attendants for the Consumer Supervisors. CDR is simply the Fiscal Intermediary provider the Consumer Supervisor uses for their CDPAS program. By accepting employment in the CDPAS program, all Attendants are reminded that they are employed by their Consumer Supervisor, but paid through CDR.
