Life Enrichment Leader (Part Time)
Memory Care Community
Create moments of connection, purpose, and joy—every single day.
We are seeking a compassionate and creative Life Enrichment Leader to join our Memory Care Life Enrichment Team. In this role, you will provide meaningful, person‑centered experiences for residents living with memory loss, working collaboratively under the guidance of the Life Enrichment Director.
Our community is faith‑based and open to all, and we are dedicated to supporting dignity, comfort, and joy for each resident through thoughtfully designed enrichment experiences.
What You’ll Do
Plan and lead purposeful, dementia‑appropriate activities that support emotional well‑being and quality of life
Facilitate engaging experiences through music, art, sensory activities, movement, reminiscence, games, and storytelling
Create calm, welcoming environments that encourage participation and reduce anxiety
Build trusting, meaningful relationships by honoring each resident’s life story, abilities, and preferences
Collaborate closely with the Life Enrichment team and Memory Care staff to support residents holistically
Adapt activities in the moment with patience, creativity, and empathy
Who You Are

Creative and flexible—able to meet residents where they are
A self‑starter who thrives as part of a collaborative care team
Comfortable working in a faith‑based environment that warmly welcomes all
Passionate about serving older adults, especially those living with dementia
Experience in Memory Care, dementia support, or life enrichment is a plus—but a caring heart, creativity, and willingness to learn matter most
Why This Role Matters
In Memory Care, moments matter. Your presence, creativity, and compassion will help residents feel seen, valued, and connected—sometimes in ways words can’t express. This role is about more than activities; it’s about creating meaningful moments of comfort, joy, and belonging.
If you feel called to serve seniors with empathy, creativity, and purpose, we would love to meet you.
