- Create meaningful opportunities for residents to connect, socialize, express themselves, and maintain a sense of purpose.
- Support individualized life enrichment programming that reflects residents’ interests, abilities, life experiences, and personal preferences.
- Help develop and implement engaging, dementia-friendly activities that promote cognitive stimulation, social interaction, physical movement, and emotional well-being.
- Build genuine, trusting relationships with residents and their families.
- Encourage resident participation while respecting individual choices, abilities, and independence.

- Flexibility, dependability, and a willingness to work as part of a team.
- The ability to work a flexible schedule that includes weekends and occasional holidays as needed.
- A willingness to pursue additional education, training, and certification in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia care.
- Previous experience in senior living, activities, life enrichment, or memory care is preferred.
Our Commitment to Memory Care Excellence
We believe providing exceptional memory care starts with understanding each resident as an individual. We are looking for a team member who is eager to learn, grow professionally, and develop specialized skills in dementia care.
A passion for memory care and a commitment to continued learning are essential for this role. We welcome someone who is excited to expand their knowledge of Alzheimer’s disease, learn effective dementia care approaches, and pursue relevant professional education and certification.
Why Join Our Team?
- The opportunity to make a meaningful difference in residents’ daily lives.
