We are independently owned and managed.You won't ever have to deal with Corporate here.You will be working closely with friendly office staff with considerable experience.We schedule for you, provide administrative support, and make your job easy.

Qualifications

• Unencumbered Oregon Registered Nurse license.
• Knowledge of common medical concerns among the elderly and disabled population.
• Experience with g-tubes and diabetes management preferred.
• Excellent organization skills, to keep on time and on track. Most of our RN time is NOT billable, so we need you to stay on time unless you find a problem in the field. Most days you will visit two clients in their homes, by appointment, and return to the office to document.
• Excellent written communication skills to ensure caregivers are given clear instructions, and clients receive the meds in the right dose, at the right time. This may also require faxes and phone calls to doctors offices for clarification.
• Flexibility to adjust your communication style for different situations and audiences, for example with elderly people with dementia or hearing loss, and with unlicensed staff members who need help understanding procedures.
• Willingness to provide minor physical assessments; for example to check for rashes and pressure ulcers, or for toenails that require a podiatrist.You will only be assessing needs. You will not actually be providing physical care.
• Driver's license and insurance
• Home health or home care experience preferred but not required.

Benefits

• Opportunity to visit dogs, cats, and other peoples' family members without having to take them home and care for them yourself.
• Part time, flexible schedule, between 12 and 24 hours per week.Our set schedule is Tuesday and Thursday, 9:00-3:30. Additionally, approximately 3 times a month we will need to schedule you on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday. You may occasionally need to work until 4 or 4:30pm to accommodate client and caregiver schedules, but this is not common. If you have a friend who also wants part time RN work and wants to job share, we're all for that, as well... as long as Tuesdays and Thursdays are covered.
• Paid travel time between client visits. Newer company car available (shared vehicle).Mileage reimbursement when you use your own car.
