In this pivotal role, you’ll oversee daily clinical operations, uphold safety standards, and step in with sound judgment during critical situations.

Bring your expertise in leadership, clinical care, and critical thinking to a role where your decisions make a real difference – not just for residents, but for your entire team. In this leadership role, you won’t just manage a shift – you’ll inspire a team, support elders at their most vulnerable, and help shape the future of care in our facility.

Collaborate with Physicians: Join physician rounds, communicate updates with care teams, transcribe and implement orders, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
Support Care Planning & Documentation: Attend care plan meetings, assess new or declining residents, and document findings and interventions with accuracy and detail.
Act as the Voice of Leadership: Serve as the administrative authority during your shift, addressing concerns, guiding staff, and keeping leadership informed of urgent and non-urgent matters.
Mentor & Supervise Nursing Staff: Provide real-time coaching, participate in performance evaluations, assist with disciplinary actions, and maintain optimal staffing levels.
Take Control of Scheduling & Staffing: Manage call-offs, fill staffing gaps, and keep the schedule updated, ensuring every unit is safely and effectively staffed.
Lead Qualify & Survey Readiness: Support compliance through regular rounds, workflow planning, and ongoing supervision. Prepare for surveys and maintain a high standard of resident care.
Handle Concerns Professionally: Receive and direct employee, elder, and family grievances to the appropriate departments with care and discretion.
Jump In as Needed: Function as a Unit Nurse when needed, assist in training new employees, and participate in discharge planning with the interdisciplinary team.
Stay Current & Contribute: Complete continuing education, attend required meetings and in-services, assist with staff training, and contribute to policy development and committees.
Lead in Emergency Preparedness: Direct responses during drills and real emergencies, including severe weather, fires, and elopements, and ensure your team is ready for anything.
