About Village Home Health

Village Home Health is committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care that allows patients to remain safe, independent, and supported in the comfort of their own homes. We believe exceptional patient care starts with an exceptional clinical team, and we are looking for an experienced Director of Nursing to help lead that team.

The Role

The Director of Nursing will provide clinical leadership and oversight for Village Home Health’s nursing and patient care operations. This individual will be responsible for supporting clinical excellence, regulatory compliance, staff development, quality outcomes, and the day-to-day coordination of patient care.

We are looking for a leader who can balance clinical quality with operational efficiency, build strong relationships with staff and providers, and create a culture of accountability, communication, and compassionate care.

Partner with administrative leadership to improve patient experience, clinical outcomes, productivity, and operational performance.

Support recruitment, onboarding, orientation, competency validation, education, and ongoing development of clinical staff.

Promote timely and effective communication between patients, families, physicians, referral sources, caregivers, and members of the interdisciplinary team.

Ensure appropriate staffing and caseload management while maintaining high standards of care.

Participate in survey preparation and maintain ongoing survey readiness.

Develop and reinforce policies, procedures, and clinical standards that support consistent, high-quality care.

Foster a positive culture where employees feel supported, accountable, and empowered to provide excellent patient care.

Qualifications

Current, unrestricted Registered Nurse (RN) license in the applicable state.

Minimum of 3 years of nursing experience, with home health experience required.

Prior nursing leadership, supervisory, clinical management, or Director of Nursing experience preferred.

Strong understanding of home health clinical operations and regulatory requirements.

What We’re Looking For

Beyond clinical experience, we are looking for someone who is proactive, approachable, organized, and willing to lead from the front.

The right person will not simply identify problems, they will help solve them. They will understand that great home health care requires strong clinical judgment, timely communication, collaboration, and a team that feels supported in doing their best work.
