LPN Resident Care Manager

Livingston Place at Southern Avenue is designed to serve the needs of District aging seniors who has a disability and low to moderate income.  Our dedicated team has built a strong reputation for providing personalized, compassionate care that addresses residents’ physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.

At Livingston Place Assisted Living, the Resident Care Manager (RCM) functions as a vital part of the Health Services leadership team to ensure the quality care of all residents. The RCM reports directly to the Director of Nursing and Assistant Director of Nursing; however, the RCM works loosely with all the community management team members to assist with coordinating staff, providing oversight to direct care staff, and coordinating services for the residents. The role requires understanding and commitment to the principles and values of the community and company. This position requires creativity and flexibility with residents and employees who have complex situations and at times this position is stressful. The RCM requires the ability and willingness to train caregivers in tasks required for delivering quality care to the residents of the community. Additionally, this position will be responsible for conducting nursing duties within the scope of nursing practice and assist with the responsibilities of the Director of Nursing in their absence, the ideal candidate will have a minimum of a Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) license.
