Director of Care (Registered Nurse) Reports to: Director of Nursing, Andrews Senior Care Hours of Work: Full-time, salaried Andrews Senior Care is opening a new 90-bed Long Term Care home in Charlottetown, and we're looking for a Director of Care to help lead the way — a new team, a recent building, and the chance to shape a great place to work from day one. You won't be starting from scratch: our systems, policies, and standards are already built and proven, backed by more than 40 years caring for people across PEI and New Brunswick. Your focus is bringing them to life — support hiring and building a great team, getting everyone trained, and opening the doors together.

If you have a positive mindset, are adaptable, and are excited to build a team while keeping resident care front and centre, we'd love for you to grow with us.
