El Cajon, United States Sycuan Gaming Center Full time

The ancestors of the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation existed many centuries ago as a community of people…a Tribe living together, farming, hunting and fishing to survive.

Much has changed since that time. Today the Sycuan Tribe governs its Reservation, owns and operates a Casino and a Golf Resort, and owns a number of other business ventures in the San Diego Region.

One attribute that remains unchanged, however, is Sycuan's sense of community. Sycuan is more than just a business. Sycuan is a community of people working together toward a common goal. Whether you work in our state-of-the-art Casino, our beautiful Resort, or become a staff member in our Tribal Government division, you will be part of the Sycuan family.

Job Purpose:

Provides advanced level of home health care to Tribal Members with chronic disease or serious illness requiring advanced medical support for medications, feeding, and monitoring of disease. Works under the direction and supervision of Sycuan Medical Clinic Supervisor and/or Executive Director assigned by Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation, and the client's Primary Care Physician.

Policy: Licensed Vocational Nurse must perform only duties that are within limitations of the scope of practice and in accordance with the guidelines stipulated by the Board of Vocational Nursing. It is the responsibility of the LVN to know his/her limitations and abide by the regulatory standards. LVNs are responsible for maintaining clinical competence with regard to those skills and activities expected of a LVN. At no time should an LVN perform an activity in which he/she does not feel clinically competent or questions the legal scope of practice for that activity.

Scope of Practice: In California, Licensed Vocational Nurses practice the performance of services requiring those technical, manual skills acquired by means of a course in an approved school of vocational nursing, practiced under the direction of licensed physician, mid-level provider, or registered professional nurse. Please see Essential Duties/Responsibilities below for specific procedures LVNs are able and unable to perform.

Summary: Works under the supervision of the Sycuan Medical Clinic Supervisor and/or Executive Director and client's Primary Care Provider [PCP]. Provides excellent patient care to the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation Tribal Member. The LVN/caregiver will plan and follow a daily care schedule with the assigned Tribal Member, modify care plans as prescribed by medical professionals, and report any new conditions or needs that may arise.
