Deschutes Recovery Center | Bend, Oregon
Many people qualify for QMHA in Oregon and don’t realize it. If you have experience in behavioral health, social services, recovery support, residential care, or related fields, you may already meet the qualifications.
Telecare’s Deschutes Recovery Center is hiring two QMHA team members who want flexible work while making a real impact in the lives of individuals recovering from serious mental illness.
While Telecare classifies these positions as On-Call, this role offers pre-planned Per Diem shifts to help cover vacations, leaves of absence, and scheduled staffing needs. This means you can often plan your schedule in advance while maintaining flexibility.
If you’re passionate about recovery-focused care and want meaningful work in the behavioral health field, we encourage you to apply.
