Job Description:

Housekeeper | Creating Comfort, Dignity, and a Place Seniors Can Call Home

Wellspring Lutheran Services | Saginaw Senior Living Campus - Assisted Living | Full-Time | Hourly $15.00

You didn’t choose housekeeping because you simply enjoy cleaning.

You chose this kind of work because you take pride in helping others. You understand that a clean room can bring comfort. A freshly made bed can help someone feel cared for. A welcoming environment can help someone feel at home.

When older adults move into a senior living community, they’re trusting others with more than their care. They’re trusting others with their home, their routines, and their quality of life.

At Wellspring Lutheran Services, we’re looking for a Housekeeper who understands that housekeeping is about so much more than cleaning.

It’s about creating spaces where seniors feel respected, comfortable, and valued every day.

As a Housekeeper, you’ll play an important role in the daily experience of our residents. Your attention to detail, compassionate approach, and commitment to excellence help create an environment where residents can thrive and families can feel confident knowing their loved ones are living in a safe, clean, and welcoming community.

What Your Impact Will Look Like

You’ll help create an environment that feels warm, welcoming, and comfortable for every resident who calls our community home.

You’ll ensure resident rooms, common spaces, dining areas, bathrooms, and shared living spaces are clean, safe, and inviting.

You’ll help residents maintain dignity by respecting their personal belongings, honoring their preferences, and creating spaces that promote comfort and independence.

You’ll contribute to the health and well-being of residents by following infection prevention practices and maintaining cleanliness throughout the community.

You’ll work closely with team members across departments to ensure residents receive exceptional service and support every day.

Some days you’ll be preparing a room for a new resident and helping them feel welcomed from the moment they arrive. Other days you’ll be responding quickly to unexpected needs, assisting during special events, or helping maintain the beautiful environment that residents and families enjoy.

Every day, your work will directly contribute to the comfort, safety, and happiness of the seniors we serve.

The Team Member We’re Looking For

• You take pride in a job well done.
• You enjoy helping others and understand how small acts of service can make a meaningful difference.
• You pay attention to details and notice the little things others may overlook.
• You value cleanliness, safety, and organization.
• You enjoy working as part of a team while also managing responsibilities independently.
• You treat every resident with dignity, respect, and compassion.
• You believe creating a comfortable environment is an important part of caring for others.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

You’ll maintain resident rooms, bathrooms, common areas, dining spaces, offices, and other community areas to ensure they remain clean, safe, and welcoming.

You’ll follow established housekeeping procedures, infection control practices, and safety standards that help protect residents, employees, and visitors.

You’ll assist with laundry duties, room preparation, waste removal, floor care, and emergency housekeeping situations as needed.

You’ll monitor the condition of furnishings, equipment, and supplies and communicate concerns when repairs, replacements, or replenishment are needed.

You’ll help ensure our community remains a place where residents are proud to live and families feel welcome to visit.

What You’ll Bring

• A heart for serving older adults and helping create an environment where they feel respected, comfortable, and valued every day.
• High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
• Previous housekeeping experience is helpful, but not required. We’re happy to train someone who shares our commitment to service and excellence.
• The ability to read, write, and communicate effectively in English.
• The ability to perform the physical requirements of the position with or without reasonable accommodation, including standing, bending, reaching, and lifting up to 50 pounds.
• Strong attention to detail and pride in maintaining a clean, safe, and organized environment.
• A positive attitude and the ability to work collaboratively with residents, families, visitors, and coworkers.
• A commitment to supporting a culture of dignity, hospitality, and excellence.

Why Wellspring Lutheran Services?

At Wellspring Lutheran Services, we believe every older adult deserves to live in an environment where they feel respected, valued, and truly at home.

Our Housekeeping team plays an important role in delivering that experience every single day.

When you join Wellspring, you’re joining a mission-driven organization where every role contributes to the well-being of the seniors we serve. Whether you’re preparing a resident’s room, keeping common areas spotless, or helping respond to an immediate need, your work matters.

You’ll have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, work with a supportive team, and make a positive difference in the lives of others.
