More than 125 years later, St. Joseph's remains dedicated to its mission of caring for the poor and underserved. Operated by St. Joseph's Hospital, Huger is an assisted- living facility for people with dementia. The grassy five- acre campus was established nearly 20 years ago due in part to the generosity of the late Dr. Raymond Huger, a St. Joseph's psychiatrist whose wife had Alzheimer's disease. He envisioned a facility where residents could remain active, while being treated with dignity and respect. Today, that vision is a reality for the 48 residents who call Huger home; many will live their final days here. Every detail at Huger is carefully crafted to accommodate the special needs of those with dementia, a progressive loss of brain function that can be caused by a multitude of diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and stroke. Huger adheres to a social, activity-based model, in which residents are encouraged to interact through a variety of activities. On any given day, you'll find residents involved in anything from music and art to pet therapy. There are theme weeks and monthly outings, as well as holiday dinners and community celebrations, like the annual Fall Festival with students from nearby Orangewood Elementary School. For the health of our community ... we are proud to be a tobacco-free campus. **Pay Range** $18.00 - $21.40 /hour We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer.
