Western Slope Memory Care is looking for a compassionate, dependable Qualified Medication Administration Personnel (QMAP) team member to support our residents with safe medication administration and thoughtful daily care.

You’ll document medications accurately, follow proper storage and handling procedures, help coordinate refills, and promptly report medication concerns, refusals, errors, or changes in a resident’s condition to the appropriate team member.

Caring for residents goes beyond the medication cart.

Throughout the day, you’ll offer gentle reminders, reassurance, and companionship while protecting each resident’s dignity and encouraging independence.

From supporting a comfortable morning routine to noticing when someone needs extra attention, your care will help make Western Slope feel like home.
