What You’ll Do:
As Director of the Encore Program, you will serve as the program’s leader, educator, and ambassador. You will develop and standardize dementia-focused care practices, educate interdisciplinary hospice teams, provide guidance and education to families, and help integrate meaningful sensory and non-pharmacological interventions into patient care.
You will also collaborate with Clinical Directors and Patient Relations Managers to introduce the Encore Program to memory care communities, assisted living facilities, skilled nursing facilities, and other healthcare partners throughout Pennsylvania.
This position allows you to combine clinical knowledge, education, leadership, creativity, and community outreach in a role where your work can directly improve the experience of patients and families facing advanced dementia.

The Encore Program takes that mission one step further by ensuring that patients living with dementia are not only medically supported, but understood, comforted, engaged, and treated as the individuals they have always been.
If you are looking for a role where your expertise will be valued, your ideas can help shape a growing program, and your work will have a meaningful impact on patients, families, and care teams, we would love to hear from you!
