Arbor Place Assisted Living
MD
Summary
Provide hands-on emotional and physical support for residents with dementia, including assistance with activities of daily living. Monitor residents for changes in condition or behavior and document observations while maintaining a safe and clean environment.
Job Description
Some of the most important moments in dementia care happen quietly.
Our caregivers notice these things.
- A resident wakes up confused and frightened
- Someone who cannot explain discomfort becomes restless
- A subtle change in walking, breathing, appetite, sleep, or behavior may be the first sign that something is wrong
We are looking for calm, attentive caregivers who understand that care is not simply “watching.”
Our team is active, engaged, and highly observant, helping vulnerable residents feel safe, reassured, comfortable, and known. This role is ideal for someone who is compassionate, dependable, and genuinely respectful.
Schedule
This is a part-time caregiver position with a regular every-other-weekend schedule.
Available Shifts May Include
- 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
- 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
- 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
- 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
- 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
Additional PRN day, evening, and overnight shifts may also be available based on staffing needs. Applicants should be reliable, punctual, and able to commit consistently to the every-other-weekend schedule.
What You’ll Do
Provide hands-on ADL and emotional support for residents living with dementia and other cognitive impairments.
- Assist with toileting, repositioning, hygiene, continence care, mobility, transfers, showering, eating, and other activities of daily living
- Monitor and respond to changes in condition, behavior, comfort, gait, sleep patterns, or alertness
- Respond promptly, calmly, and reassuringly to resident needs
- Help prevent falls and reduce confusion or agitation
- Support residents with reassurance, redirection, companionship, and a calming presence
- Maintain a clean, safe, and organized environment
- Communicate observations clearly to leadership, the nurse on duty, and the incoming shift
- Document care accurately and thoroughly
- Work collaboratively with nurses and caregivers as part of an integrated care team
The Care We Believe In
Our environment is intentionally relationship-based and highly attentive. Residents are known individually, and caregivers are valued as essential members of the team.
We believe excellent dementia care requires patience, attentiveness, consistency, teamwork, and genuine human connection.
What We Look For
We look for caregivers who:
- Communicate calmly, respectfully, and with awareness of others
- Demonstrate patience, attentiveness, and reliability
- Remain composed and responsive in urgent situations
- Work well as part of a close-knit team
- Notice small changes and communicate concerns clearly
- Treat residents with dignity, kindness, and respect
- Are willing to jump in and help wherever needed
- Understand that compassion is often expressed through consistency, patience, and presence
Physical Requirements
- Ability to perform the essential functions of the position, including assisting residents with transfers, repositioning, ambulation, and mobility, with or without reasonable accommodation. The role may require lifting or assisting with up to 50 pounds.
- This role is on-site in Rockville, MD, in our specialized, boutique memory care home limited to 16 residents.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in memory care, assisted living, skilled nursing, home care, or healthcare preferred
- Experience working with residents with dementia or cognitive impairment preferred
- CNA/GNA certification welcomed
- Strong communication and teamwork skills
If you are someone who notices when another person needs reassurance, support, a task to keep busy, or a subtle assist, and you are the kind of person who proactively jumps in to help, we look forward to learning about you.

CUSTOM DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR DEMENTIA CARE
Founded by a geriatric psychiatrist, and purpose-built for dementia care, Arbor Place sits on beautifully landscaped acreage adjacent to protected green space. Unlike many assisted living facilities with locked memory care units that don’t allow residents to get outside, at Arbor Place the entire building and grounds are secure yet accessible.
By architectural design, our intimate home creates a safe and interactive experience. In the bright central living room residents participate in different activities from singing, art, and interactive games along with socialization and companionship to support changing needs throughout the day. Each of our 16 residents has a private room.
UNPARALLELED CARE
With the highest caregiver to staff ratio and lowest staff turnover, you can feel confident that your family member is getting the attention they need at the most vulnerable time of their life. From bathing, incontinence support, dressing, and assistance with dining to warm friendly companionship, our team ensures we meet each of our resident’s individual wishes and needs. And, unlike most other memory care facilities, we provide aging in place with dignity as the disease progresses, including gentle palliative care and on-site hospice through end of life.
DEEP DEMENTIA EXPERTISE
At Arbor Place, we are 100% dedicated to dementia and possess deep experience with many neurodegenerative disease processes including Alzeheimer’s, Parkinsons and other challenges with dementia. We know how to support these with a care first, behavioral-focused approach.
TRANSPARENT RATES
At Arbor Place, you’ll pay one rate which covers housing, furniture, meals and snacks, nursing support, and ALL care. We’ll never ask you to hire additional staff and we won’t charge you more for things like increased medication administration, dining help, dress or bathing, or incontinence assistance.
