Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering for Kentucky-licensed RNs who want home health clinical work with a large payer-provider organization. It is not a strong fit for clinicians trying to move into non-clinical or healthcare-adjacent roles.
Who should apply
Kentucky-licensed RNs with home health, OASIS, care coordination, case management, or independent assessment experience; nurses comfortable with home visits, driving, documentation, on-call, and weekend rotation.
CV angle
Frame real RN experience around home health eligibility assessment, OASIS completion, medication reconciliation, interdisciplinary care planning, payer documentation, supervision of LPNs/home health aides, patient education, and readmission-reduction/quality improvement work. Do not claim OASIS or home health experience unless genuinely used.
Skills to highlight
- Home health nursing
- OASIS assessment
- Care plan development
- Medication reconciliation
- Patient education
- Interdisciplinary care coordination
- Payer documentation
- Supervision and precepting
