• Provide ongoing evaluation of restraint use, wound prevention, falls, and injury prevention
• Record assessment findings and treatment interventions in the client’s chart
• Excel in a collaborative, interdisciplinary team environment
• Exhibit sound professional judgment

Are you the right fit?

• Passion for your profession and commitment to ongoing professional development
• Superior interpersonal relations, communication, problem‑solving, time management, computer and documentation skills
• Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively as a member of a multidisciplinary team
