Description of Work

This position is funded in part through federal funds.

Recruitment Range: $57,712 - $85, 846

THIS IS A REPOST: PREVIOUS APPLICANTS ARE STILL UNDER CONSIDERATION AND NEED NOT APPLY.

The primary responsibility of the nurse consultant in the Nursing Home Licensure and Certification Section is to determine compliance of nursing homes with federal and state requirements through inspections. The nurse consultant must apply laws, regulations, rules, and protocols that have been established by the state or federal government. Decisions are made in conjunction with interdisciplinary team members or independently. The nurse consultant spends an average of three days per week in nursing homes conducting inspections. Occaisionally inspections are required on weekends and night shift. Even though management attempts to schedule inspections within a region, the consultant needs to expect overnight stays when the nursing home is greater than 60 miles from their home-base. The remainder of time is spent in the nurse consultant's home-based office and involves completion of survey reports. The candidate must pass the Federal Surveyor Minimum Qualifications Test (SMQT) within 2 years of hire. A valid NC driver license is required.
