The posting

We are a leading skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility committed to providing exceptional, individualized care for every resident. Our focus is on creating a supportive, home-like environment where residents receive the highest standard of clinical attention while maintaining dignity, comfort, and independence. With a culture rooted in collaboration, professionalism, and innovation, we strive to be a place where staff are empowered to grow, residents are treated as family, and quality outcomes are the standard, not the goal. This is a place where excellence in nursing meets compassion in practice, and where strong leadership shapes both the patient experience and the future of care delivery.

We are looking for a Director of Nursing who is not just a leader but a hands-on clinical force within the facility. This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced skilled nursing environment and is ready to take ownership of clinical operations while actively engaging with patients and staff alike. The ideal candidate has experience as a Clinical Manager, Assistant Director of Nursing, or in a comparable leadership role, and understands the demands and rewards of skilled nursing from the ground up. This is a chance to lead a team, influence patient care directly, and build a culture of clinical excellence and accountability.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide strong, hands-on leadership across all nursing operations, including short-term rehab, long-term care, and specialized clinical programs, ensuring exceptional resident outcomes.
  • Actively participate in patient care, including assessments, care planning, interventions, and clinical decision-making, modeling best practices for the nursing team.
  • Manage and mentor the nursing staff, fostering professional growth, accountability, and a culture of teamwork and excellence.
  • Oversee staffing, scheduling, and resource allocation to ensure units are adequately staffed and clinical operations run efficiently.
  • Implement, monitor, and enforce policies, procedures, and regulatory standards to maintain compliance with state and federal guidelines.
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams—including therapy, social work, and dietary—to optimize resident care and enhance satisfaction.
  • Monitor and analyze clinical performance metrics, identifying areas for improvement and driving initiatives that elevate quality, safety, and efficiency.
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for families, addressing questions, concerns, and care planning discussions with professionalism and empathy.
  • Lead quality assurance initiatives and continuous improvement projects to strengthen care standards and operational performance.

Qualifications:

  • Active and valid Registered Nurse (RN) license.
  • Proven leadership experience in a skilled nursing setting, ideally as a Clinical Manager, Assistant Director of Nursing, or similar role.
  • Demonstrated hands-on clinical ability, with a willingness to engage directly in patient care when needed.
  • Strong strategic, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to oversee multiple units and programs simultaneously.
  • In-depth knowledge of nursing standards, regulatory compliance, quality improvement processes, and patient safety initiatives.
  • Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and leadership abilities, capable of motivating and guiding a diverse team of nursing professionals.
  • Experience with staff development, performance management, and operational oversight, including budgeting and resource planning.

Compensation:

  • Competitive base salary: $100,000 – $110,000 per year, commensurate with experience.
  • Opportunity to lead a thriving skilled nursing and rehabilitation operation, make a tangible impact on patient care, and cultivate a high-performing clinical team.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
