Hillcrest Country Estates Cottages offers a unique, home-like care environment centered on helping elders maintain as much independence, choice, and dignity as possible. As a Cottage Nurse, you will provide direct nursing care while also serving as a clinical leader for the cottage team, helping coordinate care, monitor changes in condition, and support the overall health and wellbeing of the elders you serve.

What You’ll Do

As a Cottage Nurse, you will provide hands-on nursing care while supporting the daily clinical operations of the cottage team.

• Provide quality nursing and clinical care to support each elder’s physical and mental wellbeing.
• Monitor elders for changes in condition and communicate concerns promptly.
• Coordinate care with physicians and other members of the interdisciplinary team.
• Complete prescribed treatments and ensure medications are administered accurately, timely, and with appropriate privacy.
• Support fall prevention by investigating falls, identifying contributing factors, and helping implement preventive measures.
• Follow skin-care standards and ensure preventive measures are in place to help maintain skin integrity.
• Support admission and transition planning for new Cottage elders.
• Complete admission assessments, verify physician orders, and initiate care plans.
• Review and update individualized life plans and plans of care as needs change.
• Complete required admission care-plan documentation within established timeframes.
• Train, observe, monitor, and provide retraining as needed to Elder Assistants related to medication administration and activities of daily living.
• Identify and report concerns related to nursing care practices.
• Support cottage team members in following clinical policies, procedures, and standards.
• Help monitor special care programs, including incontinence management, turning, restorative care, and meal programs.
• Implement emergency procedures calmly and effectively.
• Role model professional behavior and high clinical standards.
• Participate in nurse meetings, community in-services, annual competencies, and required education.
• Assist with additional nursing and clinical responsibilities as assigned.

What We’re Looking For

The right candidate will be someone who notices the details, communicates clearly, and understands the importance of balancing strong clinical judgment with a person-centered approach. You should be comfortable supporting both elders and team members while helping maintain safe, consistent, and high-quality care.

Ideal Candidates Will Have

• A compassionate and respectful approach to elder care.
• Strong clinical assessment and critical-thinking skills.
• Ability to recognize and respond to changes in condition.
• Confidence with medication administration, treatments, and care planning.

• A team-first approach and willingness to help wherever needed.
• A genuine interest in helping aging adults maintain independence and quality of life.

• Current Nebraska or compact-state RN or LPN license required.
• American Heart Association Basic Life Support (BLS) certification required.
• At least one year of nursing experience in long-term care, post-acute care, hospital, or a similar setting preferred.
