As our MDS Coordinator, you'll play a central role in making sure every resident's care and our facility's reimbursement are captured accurately and on time.

What You'll Do

• Coordinate and complete Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments accurately and on schedule
• Manage the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) process, including care plan coordination
• Ensure documentation supports accurate reimbursement under the Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM)
• Work closely with nursing, therapy, and the interdisciplinary team on assessments and care planning
• Monitor assessment schedules and transmission deadlines to stay survey-ready

Qualifications

• Active Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) license in Ohio
• Prior experience as an MDS Coordinator or MDS Nurse — Minimum Data Set (MDS) experience is required
• Must have experience in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) / long-term care (LTC) setting

What We Offer

• Supportive clinical leadership and an experienced interdisciplinary team
• A stable, full-continuum community — skilled nursing, rehab, memory care, and assisted living on one campus
• A workplace where staff and residents know each other by name
