I started out in the company site unseen as a marketing rep. I performed

this job for appox 6 mo when I was asked to step up the Executive Directors

position in Jan 2006 As well as the Sales Rep. I agreed to manage all

aspects of running this 140-apartment facility.

This building is a little different then most as it has no age limitations

and I have learned to manage care for those with special needs and

considerations. Such as, drug dependencies, alcohol abuse etc. also those

with MS, and Paraplegics.

My job duties were to manage all aspects of this building with the aid of

the 5 department heads and approx. 45 staff all-together including

caregivers, medication staffs, dietary, housekeeping as well as

maintenance.

I was responsible to maintain expected census growth by marketing the

field 3 days a week.

To ensure all budgets are monitored closely and followed by department

heads. This position includes but is not limited to monitoring expenses in

the building in maintenance as well as dietary, office management, nursing

and all other departments. Manage all issues with resident's complaints and

concerns as well as assisting with any staffing issues that may come up.

I managed all sales and closings, which include assisting with all move-in

paperwork, assist in the collection of funds and follow up after move in to

ensure everything is satisfactory. I perform outside marketing and assist

with all activities within the residence as well as outside. I was also

helping out with in-services to staff once a month on all aspects of

resident care and common sense practices of senior care.

6/00 - 3/01 The Goodman Group

West Hills Village Residential Care

Portland, OR

Manager

As Manager of this 188-apartment residential care center we had 2

department heads and myself. I helped the administrator run the facility.

My responsibilities were such as giving tours, moving in residents, dealing

with all rental concerns and issues that may come up. This building was 82%

full when I started and ended at 98% full. This setting met all required

budgets in both staffing hours as well as census and financial. I assisted

with staffing as needed in this building however the Nursing department

managed most of this. I took over as temp Administrator while company was

training new replacement to manage both critical care units as well as

residential combined. I did not have a license for skilled care and since

this was going to become a continued care setting it was a requirement. I

was let go after I turned down a position that did not interest me at the

time and there was nothing else avail.

CCL/ Huffman House Concepts in Community Living

Newberg, OR

Administrator/

I started out at this facility as Lead Caregiver and soon became Lead

Medication Aide. After 3 years I was promoted to the position of

Administrator. I was responsible for keeping this facility fully rented and

in good order. This building was completely private pay and always full

with a waiting list. It was small but very beautiful with well-trained

quality staffing.

Here I managed all work and files for maintenance, payroll, resident files,

staff files, budgets, all medical files, and several state files and

records. I was in charge of checking all staff documentation and making

sure all regulations were being met. This job required me to have adequate

skills in MS Word, Excel, & Quick Books. I managed all aspects of marketing

and public relations, including active membership with the Newberg Chamber

of Commerce.

I have worked for this company throughout the change over in owners and

have grown along with it in the senior care field. I have managed many of

their facilities and traveled a great deal in Oregon as well as Arizona
