Full Job Description

Our Care Focus

We are a leading provider of senior healthcare services, specializing in post-acute care. We offer services ranging from comprehensive short-term rehabilitation and transitional care to Alzheimer's and dementia care.

Scope of the Role

The Activities Director leads a structured, resident-centered activities program that supports physical, cognitive, and psychosocial well-being. This position exists to ensure engaging, therapeutic recreation services are planned, delivered, and documented in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local requirements.

Key responsibilities include planning and directing the Activity Department; completing and documenting resident assessments; developing individualized therapeutic recreation plans; maintaining activity calendars, care plan input, and required records; coordinating on- and off-site events; recruiting, training, and supervising recreation staff; overseeing volunteers; supporting budget planning; and promoting programs through appropriate community outreach.

Required qualifications/skills:

Bachelor’s degree in therapeutic recreation or equivalent training/experience
Minimum two (2) years’ therapeutic recreation experience
Experience in a setting serving similar residents; one (1) year supervisory experience preferred
Working knowledge of compliance standards, documentation expectations, and program evaluation
Professional communication, organization, and a compassionate, team-oriented approach

If you’re ready to help create meaningful daily engagement for residents, apply today.

A Typical Workday

Your day runs Monday through Friday, 8:00am–4:30pm, with time split between the activity areas and your workspace. You start by checking the day’s calendar, confirming space and supplies, and touching base with nursing and therapy on resident preferences and any changes that may affect participation. Midday, you’re visible on the floor—supporting groups, connecting one-on-one with residents and families, and ensuring the environment stays welcoming and safe. Between programs, you update notes and trackers, adjust the schedule for attendance and resident interest, and coordinate with vendors or community partners for upcoming events. Before leaving, you review tomorrow’s plan, verify transportation or off-site details when needed, and make sure the team and volunteers are set up for a smooth start.
