Life Enrichment Assistant

$16 - $19 per hour

Clark Retirement

At Clark Retirement, we are committed to creating a vibrant, engaging community where residents can thrive at every stage of life. Our Life Enrichment team plays a key role in fostering connection, purpose, and joy by offering meaningful experiences that support each resident’s social, emotional, and physical well-being.

As a Life Enrichment Assistant, you won’t simply lead activities — you’ll help create moments that matter. From coordinating group programs and special events to spending one-on-one time with residents, you’ll play an essential role in enhancing daily life within our community. You’ll collaborate with team members to develop creative programming, encourage participation, and build genuine relationships with residents and their families.

This role is perfect for someone who is energetic, compassionate, and organized, with a passion for making a positive impact. Your ability to connect with others, think creatively, and adapt to residents’ individual needs will help ensure a welcoming, engaging environment where every resident feels valued and supported.

As a BHI Senior Living Community, the team at Clark Retirement is united in mission, we lead with compassion, and provide opportunities to grow and thrive professionally.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

At Clark Retirement, we know a fulfilling career is about more than a paycheck.

We offer:

  • Competitive wages starting at $16-19 per hour, depending on experience
  • Health benefits for full- and part-time team members (Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Long/Short-Term Disability)
  • Paid Time Off from day one and Holiday Pay
  • 401K with matching contributions
  • Professional development, tuition reimbursement, scholarships, and training programs to help you grow and thrive
  • On-site gym, on-site pool, daily pay option, telehealth, and Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • A supportive, team-oriented environment that values excellence in care and encourages staff to lead with compassion.
In This Role You Will:
  • Plan, coordinate, and lead engaging group activities, special events, and one-on-one interactions that support residents’ social, emotional, and physical well-being.
  • Assist in developing and maintaining a dynamic monthly activity calendar that includes weekday, evening, and weekend programming.
  • Through building meaningful relationships, you will encourage resident participation and foster a welcoming, inclusive environment.
  • Help set up, decorate, and clean up for events, ensuring each experience feels special and thoughtfully executed.
  • Collaborate with team members to create programming that reflects residents’ interests and abilities, while also observing and documenting engagement to support care planning.
  • Assist with transportation and accompany residents to outings or appointments, while maintaining activity supplies and ensuring resources are readily available.
Schedule:
  • Franklin Campus:

    • Every other weekend, and Monday and Friday on the opposite week
Who You Are:
  • A compassionate and energetic individual who enjoys creating meaningful connections and experiences for others
  • Bring creativity and organization to your work, with the ability to adapt activities to meet a wide range of resident needs and preferences. You communicate clearly and respectfully, demonstrating patience, kindness, and a strong commitment to excellent service
  • Exercise sound judgment in your daily work and take pride in contributing to a positive, engaging environment
  • Have a high school diploma or GED, and experience in activities, recreation, or senior living is a plus and be willing to work evenings, weekends, and participate in community outings as needed.
