Job description

About Us

Home Health Works has cared for Pinellas County families since 1992. We are a licensed skilled and non-skilled home health agency serving private pay clients, VA Community Care Network veterans, and Area Agency on Aging ADI and CCE program participants. We are expanding our skilled nursing service line and need a clinical leader to build it. We want a clinically experienced DON who is equally energized by clinical leadership and by building referral relationships at hospitals and VA facilities.

What You'll Do

Clinical Leadership

Oversee all skilled and non-skilled clinical operations

Supervise and mentor field RNs and LPNs

Review and approve plans of care and OASIS documentation

Ensure AHCA compliance and maintain year-round survey readiness

Conduct supervisory visits and caregiver competency evaluations

Manage VA CCN skilled case oversight and authorization compliance

Business Development

Preferred

The Right Fit

Confident presenting in a hospital boardroom and in a patient's living room

Self-directed and relationship-first: you build trust before you pitch

Organized under pressure, able to hold clinical quality and a referral pipeline at the same time

Energized by a smaller agency where your work has visible impact on the business

Ready to build something, not just maintain it

What We Offer

Performance bonus tied to skilled revenue growth

Health benefits

Paid time off

Holiday pay

Mileage reimbursement at the IRS rate

A seat at the table in a growing agency

Background Screening

This position requires Florida AHCA Level 2 background screening (FDLE and FBI fingerprinting) before hire. All offers are contingent on satisfactory clearance. Screening costs are covered by Home Health Works.
