Job Description

Expanding multi-state provider of Skilled Nursing Facilities is seeking an experienced Registered Nurse (RN) leader with stable background as a SNF Director of Nursing ( DON, DNS ) or multi-site experience for their Regional Nurse Consultant role in South Carolina .

As a Regional Nurse Consultant you'll provide leadership, mentoring and support to statewide Skilled Nursing Facility clinical teams.

This Regional Nurse will be primarily responsible for providing leadership, support, and direction to multiple healthcare facility locations throughout a specific region within South Carolina.

The Regional RN will oversee all clinical operations of the facilities in their territory, ensuring that company policies and procedures are carried out and that regulatory compliance standards are being met. The position of Regional Nurse is as much a support role, as it is a leadership role. Regional Nurses work alongside the management teams at each building to develop and implement processes, identify and resolve issues, while also managing staff.

The daily tasks of a Regional Nurse generally include :

  • Collaborate with facility and corporate management team members to achieve excellent clinical outcomes
  • Travel to each facility location to provide management support
  • Educate facility leadership and nursing department team members
  • Oversee process development and implementation
  • Oversee employee management and staffing
  • Conduct annual and complaint survey preparation
  • Assist facilities in annual and complaint surveys
  • Identify and resolve any regulatory compliance risk
  • Implement processes to correct any identified issues
  • Monitor staff, processes, and policies to ensure the highest quality care of residents
  • Review facility systems such as falls, infection prevention and control, admissions and discharges, weight loss, pressure ulcers, etc., and suggest improvements in processes where needed

Regional Nurses enjoy a position in which they have the ability to make an impact on the success of their facilities and staff. Strong candidates are devoted to educating on best practices, have an in-depth understanding of local, state, and federal regulations, and are passionate about providing exceptional care to the residents they serve. A nurse in a regional role will travel multiple times per month to make in-person visits to each of the organizations they oversee. Depending on the geographic locations of their region, this travel could include driving long distances or flying, and staying away from home overnight.

Regional Nurses are uniquely positioned for opportunities to develop clinical programs, improve facility ratings, establish standards of care, and act as the primary contact for facility leadership personnel. As such, nurses in this role experience a vast amount of responsibility, but also enjoy a very rewarding career that offers measurable outcomes.
