Support individualized care plans, restorative nursing programs, fall-prevention practices, and dementia-care approaches.
Complete electronic documentation accurately and protect resident privacy in accordance with HIPAA and facility policy.
Collaborate with nurses, dietary, therapy, activities, social services, and other team members to provide coordinated care.
Maintain clean, organized resident areas and follow safety, emergency, abuse-prevention, and mandatory-reporting requirements.
Participate in shift reports, team huddles, required training, competency checks, and performance-improvement activities.
