Full Job Description
DIRECTOR OF NURSING
Hilltop Health & Rehabilitation

Hilltop Health & Rehabilitation is looking for an experienced Director of Nursing to lead our clinical team.

The right DON will be:
  • A strong clinical leader who knows long-term care
  • Present on the floor and connected to residents and staff
  • Comfortable holding people accountable while still supporting the team
  • Survey-ready, detail-oriented, and proactive
  • Someone who believes problems are meant to be identified, addressed, and fixed - not ignored
  • A partner to the Administrator and leadership team
  • Someone who understands that great nursing starts with knowing your residents

At Hilltop, you'll have something every DON wants:

A stable nursing team. No agency dependency. A fantastic facility. And the opportunity to lead instead of constantly putting out fires.

We believe nursing home leadership should still be about the people who live inside the building.

If you're an experienced DON who wants to get back to leading nurses, knowing residents, building a team, and being proud of the care your facility provides, we want to talk to you.
