What are the responsibilities and job description for the Human Resources Coordinator position at Health Link Home Health and Hospice Agency?
Health Link Home Health and Hospice | San Francisco, CA
On-site
For more than two decades, Health Link has delivered compassionate home health and hospice care to families across the Bay Area. Our work is personal — we show up for patients during some of the most meaningful chapters of their lives. The people who do that work deserve to feel just as supported as the patients they serve, and that's exactly what this role is about.
Why this role exists
We're looking for an HR Coordinator who will genuinely take ownership of the employee experience at Health Link — someone our staff can turn to and trust, and someone who treats the regulatory rigor of home health as part of how we care for our people.
Our clinicians and administrative teams pour themselves into caring for patients; they need an HR partner who pours that same energy back into them and who keeps the credentials, documentation, and compliance standards that protect them airtight in the process. In home health, sloppy paperwork isn't a clerical issue; it's a patient safety issue and a staff protection issue. We need someone who understands that and brings real care to both sides of the work.
This isn't a role where you wait to be told what's needed. You'll see the gaps, ask the questions, and build the systems and relationships that make people feel supported and keep us audit-ready. If the idea of being the person staff can count on for the small things, the hard things, and the regulated things energizes you, keep reading.
What you'll own
You'll Thrive Here If You're Someone Who
This role is fully in person at our San Francisco office. So much of meaningful HR work — the hallway check-ins, the new-hire welcomes, the closed-door conversations — happens better face-to-face. The role is built around being present with the team you support.
On-site
- Full-time

What you'll own
- Recruiting — writing job posts, screening candidates, coordinating interviews, and making sure every applicant has a respectful, responsive experience whether or not they're hired
- Onboarding and offboarding that actually feels human — new hires welcomed thoughtfully from day one, departing teammates supported through their last day
- Benefits and payroll — enrollments, leaves, retirement, and the inevitable paycheck questions — handled with accuracy, discretion, and follow-through
- Employee support — being the first, friendly stop for questions about policies, benefits, time off, or "I'm not sure who to ask about this"
- Records and HRIS data kept clean, current, confidential, and audit-ready
- Training and compliance coordination, including the certifications specific to home health and hospice
- Performance review cycles — documentation, tracking, and helping managers follow through
- HR reporting and metrics that give leadership a real picture of how our people are doing
- Culture initiatives — recognition, team events, and the small touches that make people feel seen
You'll Thrive Here If You're Someone Who
- Knows that thorough documentation and regulatory compliance are how we protect our staff and patients, not obstacles to the "real" work
- Has 1–3 years of hands-on HR experience (healthcare or home health strongly preferred given the compliance demands of this role)
- Takes initiative — you don't wait for direction to spot what needs doing
- Holds confidentiality as a value, not just a rule
- Notices the details — wrong dates, missing signatures, expired credentials before they become problems
- Can switch gears comfortably between a nurse with a benefits question and a director who needs a comp analysis
- Is fluent in HRIS/payroll platforms, Google Workspace, and Microsoft Office Paylocity, BambooHR, or similar a plus)
- Understands California labor law and home health regulatory requirements well enough to spot a red flag
- $30–$35/hour, depending on experience
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- 401(k) with company match
- Company-paid life insurance
- Real room to grow — we promote from within when we can
- A team that takes the work seriously without taking themselves too seriously
