  • Ensure accurate and complete documentation, including ICD 10 conditions
  • Communicate and collaborate with the interdisciplinary care team 

 

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

  • Ability to gain a collaborative practice agreement, if applicable in your state 
  • Ability to complete physical requirements, including lifting a 30-pound bag and ability to perform physical assessment
  • Access to reliable transportation 

 

Preferred Qualifications:

  • 1+ years of clinical experience in practice (long-term care setting preferred)
