What are the responsibilities and job description for the Home Health Nurse (LPN/RN) position at centriahealthcare?
Care in the Heart of Whitmore Lake: Join a Dedicated Home Team
Imagine a nursing shift where the "hustle" of a hospital is replaced by the quiet rhythm of a lakeside home. We are looking for a compassionate LPN or RN to support Matt, a man in his early 40s who lives with his mother and sister. While Matt is non-verbal and paralyzed, he has a strong presence and a family that is deeply committed to his comfort.
This isn't just a clinical role; it’s an opportunity to provide the kind of dedicated, one-on-one care that allows a son and brother to thrive in the place he loves most.
