Are you an experienced nurse leader who believes great resident care starts with a great team?

At Southfield Village, we’re looking for a compassionate, confident, and people-focused Director of Nursing to lead our Health Care services. This is more than a management position—it’s an opportunity to shape a team, influence resident outcomes, develop future leaders, and make a meaningful difference every day.

If you’re ready to bring your leadership experience to a community where residents come first and team members are valued, we’d love to hear from you.

• Partner with leadership to help shape the future of Health Care services.

As Director of Nursing, you’ll provide strategic and day-to-day clinical leadership for our Health Care services. You’ll oversee nursing operations while serving as a coach, advocate, problem-solver, and trusted leader for your team.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading and supporting the Assistant Director of Nursing, MDS Coordinator, Scheduling Coordinator, and Central Supply/Medical Records Coordinator.
• Recruiting, developing, coaching, and supporting nursing team members.
• Monitoring staffing and absenteeism to help ensure appropriate coverage.
• Reviewing clinical quality indicators and leading follow-up and improvement efforts.

• Assisting with nursing department operational and capital budgets.
• Identifying opportunities to improve resident outcomes, clinical processes, and the team member experience.
• Modeling Greencroft’s CROFT values: Creativity, Respect, Openness, Fairness, and Teamwork.

You don’t have to have every skill listed below—but you should bring strong clinical leadership, a passion for people, and a commitment to quality care.

We’re looking for someone with:

• Current Indiana RN license.
• At least 3 years of supervisory experience.
