Job description

Benefits:

• Competitive salary
• Dental insurance
• Health insurance
• Paid time off
• Training & development

If you’re a CNA or PCA who takes pride in doing things the right way, Glen Haven Huntersville is built for you.

Only six residents in a beautiful, high‑end home.

Better than 3:1 caregiver ratio.

Very high standard of personalized care

Every resident known by name, routine, and preference.

You’re not just “filling a shift” here. You’re one of a small, trusted team responsible for giving six seniors the best possible day, every day.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Provide hands‑on personal care. Support residents with bathing, showering, grooming, toileting, incontinence care, dressing, and safe transfers/ambulation according to the care plan.
• Support a calm, predictable daily routine. Offer companionship, redirection, cueing for memory support, and encourage participation in simple activities (conversation, music, reading, short walks, meals together).
• Monitor and document resident status. Follow written care plans, complete basic shift documentation, and immediately report changes in condition, behavior, appetite, mobility, or skin integrity.
• Administer medications safely and accurately. Give medications as ordered, follow the MAR exactly, follow all “five rights” of medication administration, and promptly report and document any medication issues per policy.
• Communicate clearly with the care team and families. Give and receive thorough shift reports, escalates concerns quickly, and maintain a calm, professional tone with residents and families at all times.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are only considering applicants who are fully trained and cleared to administer medications in a North Carolina adult/family care home. You must meet all of the following to be hired:

1. Already a current CNA in North Carolina

If you are not already listed on the NC CNA Registry, you must provide documentation of successful completion of an approved 80‑hour PCA (personal care aide) training program under North Carolina rules and active enrollment in a local CNA training program.

No certificate = no job offer.

1. Able to Administer Medications on Day 1

Completed the required North Carolina medication training (10‑hour/5‑hour classes or equivalent) for adult/family care settings.

Passed the North Carolina Medication Aide exam and are currently eligible to pass medications in an assisted living/family care home.

Comfortable and experienced using a MAR, following written orders, and documenting medications correctly.

1. Recent, relevant hands‑on experience

At least 3 years of paid experience providing direct personal care to older adults in a facility or in‑home setting.

Formal training and hands‑on experience with memory care/dementia is strongly preferred.

If you are not a CNA or in a CNA training program or don't have a current med‑aide qualification, this role will not be a fit for you.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

At least 18 years old.

High school diploma or equivalent.

Able to pass required background checks and health/TB screening.

Current CPR/BLS training certificate

Able to lift, push, and pull at least 50 lbs with reasonable accommodation and to stand/walk for most of the shift.

Able to read and follow written care plans and document care in English (paper and basic electronic formats).

Reliable transportation and a strong history of on‑time attendance.

WHO THRIVES HERE

You will do well at Glen Haven if you:

Take your training and med‑admin responsibilities seriously and follow procedures every time.

Are calm, patient, and steady with residents who may be confused, anxious, or repetitive.

Like working in a small, tight‑knit team where everyone is visible and accountable.

Show up early, ready to report, and understand that reliability is part of good care.

Want stability, not just a short‑term job.
