Lead with Impact. Build Clinical Strength Across Communities.
We’re seeking a dynamic and experienced Float Director of Nursing (RN) to provide clinical leadership across multiple Assisted Living and Memory Care communities in the Milwaukee and Madison areas. This unique role supports our local DONs, steps in during transitions, and helps drive excellence, consistency, and compliance across locations.

This is more than coverage—it’s a chance to build, mentor, and strengthen care delivery across a region.

  • Collaborate directly with Executive Directors, Regional Directors, and home office teams
  • Experience variety while building deep relationships across our portfolio

 

What You’ll Do:

  • Act as interim or supporting DON during vacancies or onboarding periods
  • Coach and mentor nurses and caregivers to elevate team culture and care practices
  • Oversee clinical assessments, ISP development, regulatory compliance, and quality initiatives
  • Partner with therapy, hospice, and home health to ensure coordinated care
  • Promote documentation accuracy, med pass safety, and infection control practices
  • Participate in onboarding new DONs and assist in training emerging nurse leaders

 

You’re a Strong Fit If You:

  • Hold an active RN license in the State of Wisconsin
  • Have 2+ years of experience in assisted living, memory care, or long-term care
  • Thrive in dynamic settings and can quickly adapt to new teams and systems
  • Are an experienced DON, ADON, or regional nurse leader
  • Enjoy mentoring others and solving clinical challenges collaboratively
  • Are comfortable with regional travel and a flexible schedule

 

Benefits Include:

  • $5,000 Sign-On Bonus
  • Competitive salary + mileage reimbursement
  • Paid Time Off (PTO) + 6 Paid Holidays
  • Medical, Dental, Vision + company-paid life insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Instant Pay (access your earnings as you work)
  • Company laptop and phone

 

Be a Stabilizer. Be a Builder. Be a Leader.


Apply today to help strengthen care across communities and support our clinical teams when they need it most.

“This role is ideal for someone who loves variety, thrives in leadership, and wants to mentor others while keeping residents at the heart of every decision.”
