Activity / Activities Aide - part time Days
About The Position
The Terrace is a skilled nursing facility that cares for older adults who need extra support. Some of our residents are here short term to recover after surgery or illness, while others live with us long term, including those with Alzheimer’s or memory loss.

Your work brings dignity, comfort, and connection to the people who call The Terrace home.

As an Activity Aide, you will involve residents in a therapeutic engagement program. You will help residents with life enrichment activities and a variety of entertainment options to help keep them engaged in their recovery programs. The company recognizes that emotional well-being is just as important as clinical care.
