What are the responsibilities and job description for the Memory Care Life Enrichment Coordinator position at Touchmark?
Touchmark at Georgetown, located on 13 beautifully landscaped acres just north of Austin and south of Sun City, is the newest addition to the Touchmark family, backed by more than 45 years of senior living experience. Our vibrant community offers a full continuum of care, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care, all designed to support residents in living The FULL Life—on their terms. With thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, inviting terraces, and a strong focus on connection, wellness, and lifelong learning, Touchmark at Georgetown provides a welcoming environment where residents and team members alike can thrive.
As a Memory Care Life Enrichment Coordinator, you will enrich lives every day by assisting in the planning, creation and implementation of an activities program for our Memory Care residents that will meet the physical, cognitive, social, and spiritual needs of residents. You will have the daily opportunity to exercise your ability to encourage and motivate others, and to be a positive presence in the lives of residents and their families!
Programming in Memory Care requires patience, flexibility, creativity, and the ability to adapt activities to meet residents where they are cognitively, emotionally, and physically. This role involves hands-on engagement and consistent interaction with residents throughout the day.
This position follows a Sunday through Thursday schedule. Availability to work weekends is required as weekends are an important time for resident engagement and community programming.
While this role will primarily support our Memory Care neighborhood, it also requires collaboration with the broader Life Enrichment team and participation in programming and community events across other neighborhoods, including Assisted Living. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working in a hybrid capacity and contributing to a connected, community-wide resident experience.
The ideal candidate will:
- Have a commitment to Touchmark’s values (excellence, teamwork, hospitality, integrity, and compassion), as well as a desire to model these values and to encourage others to be allies, friends and givers
- Possess a high school diploma or equivalent
- Have experience working with a social or recreational activities program in a health care setting, and preferably have experience working with people living with dementia
- Enjoy working as part of a team to arrange, organize, and assist with activities both on and off campus, such as holiday and birthday celebrations, social events, community outings, and exercise programs
- Have a genuine interest in caring for elderly residents and working in a geriatric environment
- Have a commitment to confidentiality in respect to resident status and medical history
- Be able to maintain patient and tactful composure when dealing with residents, family members, staff members and visitors
