Job Description

Oasis Ascent is a specialized short-term residential treatment program located in Provo, Utah, dedicated to providing intensive support and secure care for teenage girls facing emotional and behavioral challenges. As an establishment, Oasis Ascent focuses on healing through observation, assessment, stabilization, and comprehensive therapeutic services designed to address the unique needs of young women in crisis. The program emphasizes family involvement by working alongside licensed clinicians to identify the root causes of distress and develop tailored care plans that promote lasting recovery and wellness. The facility prides itself on fostering an environment that supports safety, respect, and personal growth, helping students build resilience and healthy relationships during their stay.

The role of Housekeeper at Oasis Ascent is integral to maintaining this healing environment. This position is part-time with a flexible schedule and compensation dependent on experience. The Housekeeper is responsible for ensuring the facility remains clean, safe, and welcoming, directly contributing to the overall well-being and comfort of the students. By effectively managing the cleanliness and organization of resident rooms, common areas, bathrooms, and dining spaces, the Housekeeper plays a vital role in the success of the therapeutic program. This position requires a strong attention to detail, an understanding of trauma-informed care approaches, and a commitment to supporting a calm and secure atmosphere.

In this role, the Housekeeper works closely with clinical staff and the larger care team to ensure that physical environments meet both emotional and safety needs of residents. Beyond routine cleaning, there is an emphasis on infection control, health and safety compliance, and maintaining equipment and supplies to support hygiene. The housekeeper must be mindful of emotional triggers and behaviors, applying trauma-informed principles to avoid causing distress to residents. Effective communication and teamwork skills are essential to report safety concerns, adapt schedules around therapy sessions, and contribute positively to the healing mission at Oasis Ascent.

Joining Oasis Ascent means becoming part of a compassionate and dedicated team committed to making a real difference in the lives of young women. The organization supports its employees by offering continuous professional development opportunities, access to a free Employee Assistance Program, and competitive benefits including significant discounts on professional gear. Additionally, the Provo location provides easy access to some of the nation’s most stunning natural landmarks and recreational activities such as Zion National Park and world-class ski resorts, making it an attractive place to work and live for those who value outdoor experiences alongside meaningful career contributions.
