This opportunity isn’t just about the tasks at hand; it’s about lifting spirits, preserving dignity, and helping people thrive one day at a time.

You’ll identify safety risks, prevent falls, monitor nutrition, and advocate for residents’ preferences and goals. The position offers a competitive weekly pay range of $965–$1,034, reflecting your expertise and the value you bring to the care team. Bonus opportunities recognize your contribution to high‑quality outcomes and smooth team collaboration. Housing assistance helps reduce relocation stress, and extension opportunities allow you to continue advancing your assignments with continuity and growing familiarity with the programs and residents you serve.
