Medication Lead

We are hiring an experienced QMAP ready to lead with care.

Join a team where Care is Wrapped in Kindness. At Applewood Our House, memory care is personal. We serve residents with dementia in a calm, home-like environment where integrity, compassion, and adaptability guide every decision we make.

At Applewood, you aren't just a staff member. You are a trusted leader within a small, dedicated household team. We're looking for an experienced QMAP who wants to take the next step: someone who sets the standard for medication safety, supports and mentors fellow caregivers, and brings a presence that feels like family.

• A True Home:
  Lead in a calm, residential environment, with no long, cold hospital hallways.
• Deep Connections:
  Know your residents well and help guide your care with a consistent, familiar team.
• Professional Integrity:
  Oversee medication practices with precision and care, supported by a leadership team that values safety and integrity.
• Room to Grow:
  Step into a leadership role where your experience and judgment are recognized.

• Medication Oversight:
  Lead and monitor medication administration to ensure full compliance with Colorado regulations.
• Records and Audits:
  Review MARs and medication records for accuracy, conduct routine audits, and correct discrepancies promptly.
• Pharmacy Coordination:
  Manage medication orders, refills, deliveries, and storage, and communicate with pharmacies, physicians, and families as needed.
• Controlled Substances:
  Maintain accurate counts and secure handling of controlled medications.
• Team Support and Training:
  Train, mentor, and support QMAPs and caregivers in safe medication practices.
• Dignified Personal Care:
  Provide hands‑on assistance with ADLs in a gentle, respectful manner when needed.
• Dementia Support:
  Recognize and respond to the unique needs of residents with dementia with patience and grace.
• Communication:
  Observe, document, and report changes in resident condition, behavior, or medication response to leadership.

• Experience:
  
  At least [1–2] years of experience as a QMAP required; memory care or assisted living experience strongly preferred.
• Leadership:
  Prior lead, trainer, or supervisory experience preferred.
• Attention to Detail:
  Strong organizational and documentation skills.
• Reliability:
  Must be dependable and committed to a consistent schedule.

If you're ready to bring your medication expertise and leadership to a place that feels like home instead of a "big box" facility, we want to meet you.
