DESCRIPTION

Cornerstone Caregiving is seeking an energetic, proactive, and engaging caregiver to provide one-on-one companionship for a client living with dementia in a memory care community.

This position is focused primarily on companionship, social engagement, and helping the client stay active and involved . We are looking for someone with a positive personality who takes initiative and can gently encourage the client to participate in daily activities and social opportunities offered by the facility.

Previous dementia, Alzheimer's, memory care, or senior companionship experience is highly preferred.
