Job description:
If you are drawn to dementia care not just as a profession, but as a purpose, we invite you to apply.
What We are Looking For:
7am-3pm & 3p-11pm HIGH FLEX & OPEN AVAILABILITY
OR 3p-11pm & 11pm -7am. HIGH FLEX & OPEN AVAILABILITY
We are seeking compassionate caregivers who feel a genuine calling to serve. Those who understand that the overnight hours are not “quiet shifts,” but sacred opportunities to protect dignity, offer reassurance, and ensure safety when vulnerability is at its highest. Being present in the stillness of the night — providing calm, comfort, and steady support — is deeply meaningful work.
This is not simply a job to fill time. It is an opportunity to stand in the gap for someone who may be confused, anxious, or afraid in the dark — and to be the steady presence that brings them peace.
At least one year of professional caregiving experience
Experience working overnight shifts, with the ability to remain alert, attentive, and responsive
Hands-on experience supporting individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia (strongly preferred)
A patient, calm, and dependable nature — especially during moments of confusion or agitation
A genuine passion for serving the elderly, infirm, and those living with dementia
A positive attitude and strong sense of reliability and accountability
The ability to work collaboratively as part of a team while also functioning independently overnight
Job Summary
Overnight supervision and Q2hr safety checks
Assisting with toileting, hygiene, repositioning, and incontinence care
Responding to resident needs
Managing dementia-related behaviors with patience and redirection
Documenting observations and reporting changes in condition
Light laundry duties (washing, drying, folding resident linens and clothing)
Maintaining a clean and peaceful environment
