Use person-centered, dementia-sensitive approaches when residents experience confusion, anxiety, agitation, or difficulty communicating their needs. Build trusting relationships by learning residents' individual routines, preferences, personalities, and abilities. Maintain medication carts, supplies, and work areas in a clean, secure, and organized manner. Follow infection prevention practices and all medication safety protocols. Partner with residents, families, nurses, and other team members to provide consistent, compassionate care. Help create a Memory Care environment where residents feel safe, respected, valued, and connected.

Current Oklahoma Certified Medication Aide (CMA) certification. High school diploma or GED. Current CPR and First Aid certification (American Heart Association preferred). Previous experience working with individuals living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia is strongly preferred.
