Join Our Team and Make a Difference!

Nightingale Respite Care LLC is seeking an experienced, motivated, and highly organized Service Coordinator to support our growing Michigan home care operations.

We are looking for a professional who understands Medicaid-funded home care services, values exceptional client care, and takes pride in keeping daily operations running smoothly.

Experience with Veterans Affairs (VA)-funded home care programs is highly desirable.

This is more than a scheduling position. Our ideal candidate is proactive, dependable, resourceful, and comfortable taking ownership of client services, caregiver coordination, and operational responsibilities.

If you enjoy solving problems, building relationships, and making a meaningful difference in people's lives, we would love to hear from you!

  • Assist      with incident reporting, quality assurance, and operational follow-up.
  • Track      unstaffed hours, caregiver availability, and outstanding service needs.
  • Maintain      organized, accurate, and timely operational records.

Relationship Development & Growth

  • Build      and maintain positive relationships with Medicaid referral sources, VA      contacts, and community partners.
