Tired of your traditional health care setting?

Marty's Orchid House is a licensed day program that services young children from the ages of 18 months to 6 years that have sensory processing disorders and overlapping health conditions. A child's day is filled with a structured classroom schedule at a 3:1 child-to-caregiver ratio. The RN Care Coordinator (RNCC) should be highly motivated, passionate and innovative, providing comprehensive services in the day center setting. The main role of the RNCC will be to assess and evaluate children and to implement his/her plan of care each day. The RNCC should take a holistic approach to care, as the entire child, their environment and the thoughts and opinions of their caregivers/parents are taken into consideration when implementing treatments/interventions. The RNCC should have excellent communication skills, as carryover plays an integral part in meeting the child’s needs.

The RNCC shall maintain compliance with the standards of nursing practice and delegation and shall: participate in a child’s pre-admission planning conference, assess patient health problems and needs, develop and implement nursing care plans, provide hands-on nursing care, maintain medical records, participate in multidisciplinary team meetings for a child, provide care coordination for a child, and provide education and training to a child’s parent or guardian on a variety of health-related topics. Kentucky licensing or registration required.
