Responsibilities

Be a Personal Care Champion: Jump in to help residents with their daily activities—bathing, dressing, meals, laundry—with genuine attention to the details that matter (combed hair, tied shoes, fresh breath!).

Keep the Communication Flowing: Chat regularly with your supervisor and teammates to stay in the loop about resident needs and any concerns that pop up.
Be a Safety Guardian: Keep a watchful eye on residents' safety and well-being, and always report any suspicions of abuse, neglect, or misuse of resources as required.
Track the Changes: Notice and report any shifts in residents' health or status to your supervisor, and document their condition as directed.
Master Medication Management: Assist residents with their daily medications in line with state regulations and established procedures. Double-check that the right resident gets the right dose at the right time via the right route. When in doubt, loop in the RN/LPN or supervisor.
Keep Records Straight: Make sure all documentation happens promptly, including any medication refusals or treatment declines.
Restock and Refresh: Keep medication carts and storage areas stocked with supplies (gloves, sanitizer cups, etc.) and submit work orders for any repairs or replacements needed.
Show Up for the Team: Attend and actively participate in monthly staff meetings, bringing your insights to the table on resident and departmental needs.
Roll with It: Take on other duties as assigned—we're a flexible, collaborative team!
