Overview

The Activity Assistant helps create meaningful, engaging days for individuals living with dementia at the CarePartners Dementia Day Center. This position plans, prepares, and leads a variety of activities designed around participants’ interests, abilities, and needs while also providing person-centered support and care throughout the day.

We are looking for someone who enjoys creating experiences, leading groups, trying new ideas, and finding different ways to engage people. The ideal candidate is energetic, organized, comfortable with technology, and able to take initiative rather than waiting to be told what to do next.

Responsibilities

  • Prepare and lead daily individual and group activities, including creative arts, games, music, movement, reminiscence, discussion, technology-based activities, and other meaningful experiences.
  • Help develop the activity calendar and bring forward new ideas based on participants’ interests, abilities, and responses.
  • Adapt activities in the moment when something isn’t working and find creative ways to encourage participation.
  • Research and use new activity resources, technology, media, and tools to keep programming fresh and engaging.
  • Prepare activity materials and spaces before programs and help organize and clean up afterward.
  • Get to know participants—their interests, routines, strengths, and preferences—and use that knowledge to create more personalized engagement.
  • Support and engage volunteers who participate in Day Center programming.
  • Participate in daily team huddles and communicate observations, participant needs, and programming ideas with the Day Center team.
  • Provide appropriate cueing, redirection, supervision, and personal care assistance for individuals living with dementia.
  • Follow participant care plans, licensing requirements, documentation standards, and Day Center policies.
  • Help maintain a positive, organized, safe, and welcoming environment for participants, families, volunteers, and coworkers.


What We’re Looking For

  • At least one year of experience planning, leading, or supporting activities in senior living, adult day services, recreation, healthcare, education, hospitality, or a related setting preferred.
  • Experience working with older adults or individuals living with dementia is a plus.
  • Comfortable leading groups and encouraging people with different interests and abilities to participate.
  • Creative and curious—someone who enjoys researching ideas, trying new approaches, and improving what already exists.
  • Self-directed and proactive—able to see what needs to be done and take appropriate action.
  • Strong organization and time-management skills.
  • Warm, patient, flexible, and comfortable working in an active team environment.
  • Comfortable using technology, including Microsoft Office, email, tablets, web-based programs, streaming media, and digital activity resources.
  • Able and willing to learn new technology and software independently.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required.


This Role May Be a Great Fit If…

You enjoy both the creative and people-centered sides of your work. You like coming up with ideas, but you also enjoy making those ideas happen. You’re comfortable leading a room, but can also sit with someone and figure out what interests them. You don’t need every part of your day spelled out for you, and when something isn’t working, your instinct is to try a different approach.

Job Title: Food Service Coordinator (Part-Time)

Department: Day Center
Reports To: Activity Director
FLSA Status: Non-Exempt
Job Type: Part-time
Expected Hours: 30 per week 
Work Location: In person (3838 Aberdeen Way, Houston, TX 77025)

Posted 10/7/2026 (Active)

Overview

CarePartners is seeking a dependable, organized, and creative Part-Time Food Service Coordinator to support food service at our Dementia Day Center. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a kitchen environment, interacting with older adults, and bringing a little creativity to the dining experience.

Our Day Center uses a prep kitchen with catered meals, so this is not a traditional cook or chef position. The Food Service Coordinator is responsible for helping ensure meals, snacks, special diets, food safety, and kitchen operations run smoothly.

Responsibilities

  • Coordinate weekly meal and food orders.
  • Prepare for and assist with catered lunch service.
  • Work with the Day Center nurse to ensure special diets and dietary accommodations are followed.
  • Maintain appropriate food-safety, sanitation, storage, labeling, and temperature-control practices.
  • Monitor food and kitchen supplies and maintain an organized, well-stocked prep kitchen.
  • Prepare, replenish, serve and clean up refreshment service as needed.
  • Clean and sanitize food-service areas and equipment, including washing dishes following meal service.
  • Communicate with the organization’s dietitian regarding menus, dietary requirements, and food-service needs.
  • Help plan and lead occasional food-related activities or demonstrations for Day Center members.
  • Interact warmly with individuals living with dementia and use appropriate cueing, redirection, and communication techniques.
  • Work collaboratively with Day Center staff to create a safe, welcoming, and enjoyable mealtime experience.


We’re Looking for Someone Who

  • Is dependable and comfortable independently managing recurring responsibilities.
  • Is organized and able to keep track of orders, inventory, dietary needs, and deadlines.
  • Understands or is willing to learn food-safety and sanitation requirements.
  • Enjoys working with older adults and is comfortable interacting with individuals living with dementia.
  • Is creative and interested in making food and meal-times engaging and enjoyable.
  • Is comfortable with hands-on kitchen responsibilities, including setup, serving, cleanup, and dishwashing.
  • Communicates well with vendors, staff, participants, and families.
  • Can adapt when needs change and work collaboratively as part of a team.


Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent required.
  • Previous food service, catering, senior living, healthcare, hospitality, or related experience preferred.
  • Food-handler or food-safety certification preferred; ability to obtain required certification upon hire.
  • Experience working with older adults or individuals living with dementia is a plus, but training can be provided.
  • Ability to perform the physical requirements of food-service and kitchen work.


Why This Role Is Different

This is an important role within our Day Center. You won’t spend your day cooking behind a restaurant line. You’ll help create an organized, safe, and welcoming food experience for adults living with dementia while working with a team committed to helping participants have meaningful and enjoyable days.
