Considering a Career in Long Term Care

Housekeeping, Laundry, Building and Grounds

Housekeeping – Housekeeping ensures the upkeep of resident and patient rooms.

Laundry – Many facilities maintain their own in-house laundry operation and this task is very important as each resident or patient has their own personal items that must be laundered and returned to them.

Maintenance/Building and Grounds – Maintenance personnel ensure the physical plant is in good condition and non-medical equipment is in working order.
