Education & Empowerment: Train and empower direct support staff on medication administration, health protocols, and specialized clinical care (such as G-tube management, insulin, and GLP-1 injections).

Person-Centered Advocacy: Accompany individuals to key medical appointments as needed, ensuring their voices and choices are heard.

Documentation: Maintain accurate, timely medical notes within the Therap electronic health records (EHR) system.

Primary Office: Pontiac, IL.

Community Settings: Supporting small, comfortable residential homes and duplexes in Pontiac and Dwight.

Hours: Standard daytime schedule (typically 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM, M–F) offering great work-life balance.

Shared On-Call: 1 week ON / 1 week OFF shared with a peer nurse to field after-hours assessment calls or triage changes in condition. (On-call time is compensated at your active hourly rate when responding).

At Mosaic, we believe in creating a workplace where everyone has the chance to contribute and succeed. This commitment is not just a policy, it's the way we work. It's good for the workforce, it's good for Mosaic, and it's the right thing to do.

What We’re Looking For:

• Licensure: Active Registered Nurse (RN) license in the State of Illinois.
• Experience: Minimum of 1 year of general nursing experience (community health, home health, or IDD experience is a bonus, but not required!).
• Education: Associate Degree in Nursing (ASN) or Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) preferred.
• Certifications: CPR & First Aid certified (or willingness to obtain). Must obtain Illinois Nurse Trainer (RN-T Rule 116) certification within 6 months of hire (training provided).
