Home Health Registered Nurse - RN Preceptor
About The Position
BAYADA Home Health Care is offering a unique opportunity for a Registered Nurse (RN) with a passion for clinical education. In this role as a Full Time Registered Nurse Preceptor, you will train, coach, and mentor newly hired RNs and LPNs. This role will work one-on-one with our nurses to ensure our clinicians are delivering exceptional care to adult and geriatric patients living in their homes throughout the greater Denver area. Previous Medicare Certified Home Health and OASIS documentation experience is required. This position is not a dedicated clinical educator role; the RN Preceptor maintains a caseload and patient care responsibilities. When onboarding needs arise, the RN Preceptor will also provide training, mentorship, and field-based support to new clinical hires. This role requires flexibility and the ability to travel throughout the office's entire coverage area to support onboarding activities. You will be an integral member of a multi-disciplinary health care team that provides skilled nursing and rehabilitative care to clients, affording them the opportunity to remain at home. BAYADA believes our clients and their families deserve the highest quality home health care delivered with compassion, excellence, and reliability.
