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.
