Adaptability: Capability to modify activities on the fly to suit resident moods or mobility levels.
Group Facilitation: Comfort in leading small groups and maintaining an upbeat, positive environment.
Outdoor Readiness: Willingness and physical ability to perform light-to-moderate outdoor maintenance tasks.
