  • Communicate with residents' families about health changes, care plans, and concerns, offering reassurance and education.
  • Lead fall prevention, infection control, and safety practices throughout the community.
  • Document assessments, interventions, and incidents accurately and on time, following state regulations and community policies.
  • Maintain resident confidentiality, dignity, and professional conduct at all times.
