--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Elara Caring, we’re looking for a highly experienced Skilled Home Health RN who is ready to step into a clinical leadership and mentorship role—guiding new clinicians, strengthening preceptors, and elevating care delivery across our branches.
This is not a role for someone new to home health. This is for the nurse others already turn to for guidance—the one who knows OASIS inside and out, understands the realities of the field, and is passionate about developing others.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why This Role Stands OutDesigned for seasoned home health clinicians ready to lead and influence
Direct impact on clinician success, retention, and patient outcomes
Opportunity to shape orientation, training, and clinical excellence across multiple teams
Highly collaborative role partnering with Clinical Team Managers and Branch Directors
A chance to step beyond productivity and into true clinical leadership
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your ImpactAs a Clinical Success Mentor, you will bridge the gap between training and real-world field success:
Lead & Elevate New Hire Success
Guide clinicians through hands-on field orientation, ensuring confidence in:
Start of Care (SOC), ROC, Recertifications, and routine visits
Real-time clinical decision-making in the home setting
Partner closely with preceptors and leadership to ensure a consistent, high-quality onboarding experience
Evaluate readiness, provide feedback, and support clinicians as they transition to independence
Drive OASIS & Documentation Excellence
Coach clinicians on accurate, compliant documentation
Reinforce best practices aligned with Medicare, state, and regulatory standards
Improve outcomes tied to VBP, HHCAHPS, and hospitalization rates
Develop Preceptors & Clinical Culture
Mentor and support preceptors, strengthening their ability to teach and lead
Foster a culture of accountability, learning, and clinical excellence
Identify skill gaps and deliver targeted education and coaching
Support Ongoing Education & Operations
Collaborate with leadership to implement training initiatives and process improvements
Facilitate skills labs, competency validations, and ongoing education
Act as a clinical resource and trusted advisor across branches
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What We’re Looking ForWe’re seeking a true home health expert who thrives in a mentorship role:
Registered Nurse (RN) with active, unrestricted license (multi-state/compact preferred)
3+ years of Skilled Home Health experience strongly preferred (not suitable for candidates without strong SHH background)
Deep expertise in:
OASIS accuracy and documentation
Medicare regulations and home health compliance
End-to-end home health workflows (SOC through discharge)
Proven experience as a preceptor, mentor, or informal clinical leader
Strong ability to teach, coach, and influence clinicians in the field
Comfortable working across multiple locations in a fast-paced, evolving environment
Willingness to travel ~50% within the region
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why Join Elara CaringCompetitive compensation + full benefits package
Medical, dental, vision + 401(k) with match
Generous PTO + paid holidays
Tuition reimbursement & free continuing education
Career growth within a national leader in home health
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bottom LineIf you’re a skilled home health RN who’s ready to step out of the field grind and into a role where you can mentor, influence, and elevate others—this is that opportunity.
The base salary for this position is $90,000 to $95,000 annually, based on the company’s good faith estimate at the time of posting
