Full-Time Scheduler for Health Center na Christian Retirement Services Inc

Description

Oaknoll is excited to announce a new opening for a Scheduler within our Health Center! Our deadline for taking applications is Friday,  September 12th, at 12pm!

The Scheduler will be a key part of our healthcare team, helping to not only ensure staffing and care needs are met for our residents, but building relationships with staff and residents alike and learning how to best build and coordinate our teams to CREATE home for our residents. Oaknoll is a not-for-profit community that provides resident-centered care and services through our CREATE culture.

Not sure you have what it takes to be part of a CREATE culture? Let’s find out. CREATE stands for our guiding principles of caring, respect, enthusiasm, awareness, teamwork, and encouragement. We believe that people should experience joyful, active, and connected lives as they age. We believe people should have the opportunity to receive competent, caring, and compassionate health care when they need it. We believe our community is both special and unique because of the people who live here, the people who work here, and the relationships that they build together. We strive to make the lives of our residents and our staff meaningful and fulfilling. If you want to share in these values and the relationships that they allow us to build, we are looking for YOU!

Oaknoll is seeking a full-time Scheduler to join our team in the Health Center. As a Scheduler, you will be responsible for coordinating schedules of CNAs and Nurses (RNs/LPNs) to ensure appropriate coverage 24/7 in line with state regulations, resident needs and acuity, and Oaknoll’s standards. This will include developing and maintaining both daily schedules and biweekly schedules, communicating staff assignments promptly in a professional manner, responding to callouts and last minute schedule changes, maintaining employees within our scheduling and charting software systems, supporting new staff and orienting them to our scheduling policies, and assisting during resident mealtimes or by filling an open shift as needed. Additionally, you will assist with preparing resident rooms for new admissions, help with skilled care insurance pre-approvals and billing, long term care insurance claims, and insurance audits, and all other duties as assigned.

Why Oaknoll you might ask? Because we offer many benefits. Some of these include competitive pay, paid time off, retirement plan, 40% off employee meals, free use of our gyms and pool, weekly access to a Nurse Practitioner free of charge, onsite parking, tuition reimbursement, scholarship program, student load repayment program, along with medical, dental, vision, life and voluntary short-term and long-term disability insurances for qualifying employees.
