LPN Night Shift Supervisor:
The Homeplace at Midway is a short drive from Lexington, and
those 15 miles take you through beautiful Kentucky landscapes
dotted with stone fences, rolling fields, and historic
farmhouses. Midway is best known for its beautiful Thoroughbred
farms and quaint, historic vibe, and the town is full of local
restaurants and merchants. The Homeplace at Midway is next door
to a horse farm, and our neighbors love to visit us at the fence
line.
As Kentucky’s first (and only) Green House® Residence, we believe
in a different kind of senior care. Imagine the opposite of a
traditional nursing home, where elders live in cottages with a
shared kitchen and social areas. We base our standard of care on
the personal relationships between residents and staff, getting
to know each individual and caring for them as if they were our
own family. To accomplish this, our staff to patient ratio is
lower than most of our competitors, and CNAs typically have 12 or
fewer elders to care for each shift.
The Homeplace at Midway is a part of Christian Care Communities.
Founded in 1884, Christian Care is Kentucky’s largest
faith-inspired, not-for-profit provider of senior living and
long-term care for older adults.
The incumbent performs job responsibilities without posing a
significant risk of substantial harm to the health or safety of
him/her or others while maintaining compliance with all policies
