🌿 Be a Part of Something Great

Emerald Trace, part of the not-for-profit Rosedale Green family, is known for its stable leadership, compassionate culture, and lower staff-to-resident ratios. We are a mission-driven organization — not corporately owned — which means we make decisions based on what is best for residents and employees, not shareholders.

We are currently seeking Kentucky-credentialed Medication Aides (KMAs) who value teamwork, reliability, and the warm family atmosphere our community is known for.
