• Documentation Excellence: Maintain precise, real-time documentation within the EMR to ensure compliance with federal, state, and payer regulations.
• Family Support: Provide counseling and resource education to families navigating the complexities of elder care and chronic disease management.

What We’re Looking For

• Education: BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) is required.
• Licensure: Active, unrestricted RN license in the State of Illinois.
• Experience: 3–5 years of experience in hospital discharge planning, case management, or a related post-acute care field.
• Knowledge Base: Strong familiarity with Medicare/Medicaid guidelines, payer systems, and community resources in the Winfield/DuPage County area.
• Soft Skills: Exceptional critical thinking and the ability to remain calm and organized in a fast-paced hospital environment.

• Supportive Culture: We value interdisciplinary partnership and treat our staff with the same respect and dignity we show our patients.
• Comprehensive Benefits: * Competitive salary with 401(k) + matching.
