Case Manager, Nicholasville, KY

GOLDEN YEARS ADHC LEGACY

The Golden Rule is The Standard

Case Manager — Medicaid / Home & Community Based Waiver Services

Harrodsburg, Kentucky Hybrid (Office Field) Full-Time

$60,000 – $72,000 per year

At Golden Years, we treat every day, and every person, as a sacred opportunity to serve. We are a Kentucky home and community-based waiver provider, and our vision is simple: to be the heartbeat of the communities we serve, so every person feels seen, valued, and at home.

We are looking for a Case Manager who already believes that. Someone who understands that behind every Individualized Service Plan is a person who wants to stay in the house where they raised their family.

Why This Role Matters

You will not be managing a file. You will be the reason a senior in south-central Kentucky gets to stay home another year — safely, with dignity, and with real choices.

• Conflict-free by design. Your loyalty is to the participant. Full stop.
• Real advocacy. You build the plan, you protect the choice, you follow through.
• Your own community. Familiar roads, familiar faces, relationships that last.
• Hybrid flexibility. Office coordination when you need focus, home visits when families need you.
• A team that actually lives it. Respect, kindness, empathy, care, community — not wall art.

What You'll Own

Person-Centered Care

• Complete comprehensive assessments and build Individualized Service Plans that meet Kentucky Medicaid requirements (907 KAR 7:010).
• Conduct home and community visits to monitor health, safety, satisfaction, and progress toward goals.
• Advocate for participant preferences and rights, and make sure informed choice is real, not paperwork.
• Coordinate across Golden Years programs and outside providers — attendant care, transportation, therapies — within authorized scopes.

Regulatory Excellence

• Maintain compliance with Kentucky Medicaid and HCB Waiver regulations, including conflict-free case management standards.
• Complete assessments, ISPs, reviews, and progress notes within mandated timeframes.
• Document contacts, visits, coordination, and critical incidents so we are always audit-ready.
• Review service utilization and correct under- or over-utilization before it affects care.
• Contribute to quality improvement and corrective action work.

What You Bring

Required — Non-Negotiable

Prior hands-on experience in case management, care coordination, or waiver services is required. This is not a training role and it is not negotiable.

Participants and families depend on a case manager who can carry a caseload from day one.

• Documented experience in case management, care coordination, or waiver services. Required, no exceptions.
• Working knowledge of person-centered planning and conflict-free case management.
• Strong assessment, planning, and problem-solving judgment — balancing choice, safety, and regulation.
• Clear written and verbal communication for documentation and stakeholder work.
• Organized time management across a caseload and hard deadlines.
• Valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and current auto insurance. Local travel is required.

Preferred

• Bachelor's degree in social work, nursing, human services, or a related field.
• Kentucky Medicaid / HCB Waiver experience and familiarity with 907 KAR 7:010.
• Electronic health record experience.
• Cultural competence working with diverse rural and urban populations.

Pay and Benefits

Base Pay: $60,000 – $72,000 per year, based on waiver experience and credentials. We pay at the top of this range for proven Kentucky waiver case management experience.

Schedule: Full-time weekdays, with flexibility around participant visits.

Service Area: Mercer, Jessamine, Madison, Clark, Fayette, Woodford, Bourbon, Scott, and Garrard Counties and the surrounding south-central Kentucky communities.

What We Ask of Every Team Member

• Live out the Golden Rule with participants, families, and teammates.
• Show respect, kindness, and empathy consistently.
• Support safe, choice-driven services that honor dignity and independence.
• Lead like a servant, with the participant's goals at the center.

Our Hiring Process

2. Conversation — a real talk with Team Care leadership about the work and your fit.

3. Onsite — meet the team, see the center, and ask us hard questions.
