About The Position

STAT Opportunities throughout Morris, Sussex, & Warren County, NJ. As a STAT LPN with BAYADA, you'll have the opportunity to become part of our highest skilled nursing team, helping clients as they transition home from the hospital and filling last-minute openings. You'll be the first friendly face that puts new admission clients at ease right from the start. With your meaningful experience caring for people of all ages and acuity levels, you're ideally suited to provide the initial 4-6 weeks of skilled nursing care. Working closely with your Clinical Managers, you'll ensure each client's needs are met according to their care plan, all while delivering personalized one-on-one nursing attention at home. STAT nurses get paired with a new admission client and stay with that client on a consistent schedule for about one to one-and-a-half months. After completing this initial care period, you'll be matched with your next client. We offer traditional 12-hour shift options, focusing on hands-on care with one client. Clients’ ages range from infants to the elderly, with acuity requirements varying from basic care to complex needs such as trach and vent care. You’ll travel to your client's home, stay there for the full shift, and follow up with, execute, and properly document doctors' orders. Your responsibilities include performing assessments, monitoring clients’ conditions, and documenting observations, interventions, and evaluations—all vital to providing top-quality care.
