Restorative Aide

Share:

Shift Monday-Friday and Every Other Weekend 7a-3:30p

As a restorative aide at Lake City Nursing and Rehab, you'll administer a variety of treatments either independently or as part of a therapy team. This typically involves physical, occupational and speech therapies, although your job duties will depend on the facility and your patients. You may, for example, work on range of motion and progressive mobility exercises, muscle strengthening, ambulation skills and speech therapy. Aides also help with the development and maintenance of personal skills such as eating, bathing, dressing and grooming. Treatments may target rehabilitation or help people retain the ability to do simple everyday tasks. You'll also need to keep records of the work you do as part of a treatment plan; you may also be responsible for maintaining and cleaning equipment.

 

Skills and Qualifications

Restorative aide jobs specify a minimum qualification of a high school diploma or equivalent. Most people moving into these roles typically already have a certified nurse assistant license with some months of on-the-job experience. It is possible to get a job as an aide without a restorative certification, but you may have to complete an accredited course within a few months of starting work as a condition of your job offer. The job requires good communication and people skills -- you need to build relationships with your patients and your team. You also need to be physically fit as the job potentially involves a lot of standing, walking and some lifting.

Must be CNA Certified and have 4 years of LTC experience
