•      Monitor staff performance and provide coaching or corrective guidance as needed.
Resident Care Coordination

•      Maintain each resident's calendar, including appointments and care-related events.

Facility & Meal Operations

•      Ensure staff properly prepares resident meals in accordance with dietary needs and facility standards.
•      Maintain overall cleanliness and upkeep of the facility.
Reporting & Collaboration

•      Report regularly to the Director on facility operations, staffing, and compliance status.
•      Collaborate with the Director on decisions involving staffing, vendors, and resident care.

Qualifications

•      Bachelor's degree required (minimum).
•      Prior experience in assisted living, senior care, or healthcare facility management preferred.
•      Working knowledge of Minnesota Statute 144G or willingness to become proficient quickly.
•      Strong organizational and communication skills; comfortable managing schedules and documentation systems.
•      Experience supervising direct care staff (ULP/CNA or similar) preferred.
•      Current CPR/First Aid certification, or willingness to obtain.
•      Ability to pass a background study as required for assisted living licensure.
•      Must be reachable by phone for resident needs, including outside of standard business hours.
•      Valid driver's license and reliable transportation, for occasional outside medical appointments and errands.
