Description
Thank you for your interest in working at Green Hills Retirement Community. We at Green Hills seek qualified professionals that are not only knowledgeable and skilled in their field, but who will complement our commitment of service to the residents of our town homes, apartments and health care center. A large part of this commitment is called Person Directed Care. Any employee we ask to join our Community will be required to make the same commitment. Employees will be expected to not only make a personal pledge to Person Directed Care, but will be required to champion it through coaching, role modeling and getting buy-in and participation from all staff.
We are very excited about Person Directed Care and want all potential employees to have a basic understanding of what this means to both employees and the residents we serve.
Historically, nursing homes were built upon the medical model of care. This model emphasizes the diagnosis of and treatment of patients. It reinforces a system of care where nursing procedures and schedules are based on time and cost effectiveness. Person Directed Care emphasizes the individual resident. The resident is not a diagnosis but a person who comes to us with individual backgrounds, lifestyles, and routines that our goal is to maintain and foster. Person Directed Care is modifying our schedules and procedures to accommodate the resident’s schedule so that it may be as much like their routine at home as possible. Person Directed Care is about making the resident become the focus of everything we do.
A large part of Green Hill’s Person Directed Care philosophy is to enrich the lives of our residents and staff through creating bonds among each. Our employees are expected to be comfortable socializing and interacting with our residents of all abilities and limitations.
Green Hills Retirement Community is currently seeking a motivated, energetic individual who is able to work with minimal supervision for a full-time charge nurse position for our third shift. Integrity, kindness, compassion and respect for our residents is a must! Green Hills is a 40-bed facility with a fun, family like atmosphere and offers flexible schedules, competitive wages and an excellent benefit package!
