Wound care, diabetic management, infusion assistance where applicable, and delegation of tasks to CNAs under the supervision of RNs are central responsibilities. You’ll support daily living activities, assist residents with mobility and personal care, and contribute to care plans through meticulous documentation, incident reporting, and interdisciplinary rounds. Your day may include staff education on best practices, care coordination with physicians and therapists, and implementation of care adjustments to optimize comfort, safety, and function. The role offers meaningful chances to develop specialty competencies in dementia care, palliative support, restorative therapies, and activity-based programming that enhances residents’ engagement and mood. You’ll thrive in an environment that values accuracy, compassion, and proactive problem solving, while you pursue clear pathways for professional growth within long‑term care.
To complement clinical duties, the program provides competitive benefits designed to recognize your dedication and support your life outside work.

While the advertised figures provide a framework, final compensation and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process, reflecting the specifics of the assignment and your credentials.
The company values a culture of empowerment that elevates staff, recognizes expertise, and encourages ongoing development. You’ll find a supportive environment that prioritizes mentorship, continuous education, and opportunities to advance within the long‑term care pathway.
