What are the responsibilities and job description for the Registered Nurse position at Partners in Child Development?
Description
Serving Children in More Communities with our Early Intervention Program!
Our Early Intervention Program has expanded to serve children and families in the Greater Lowell area to include eight additional communities on top of the work we’ve been doing for over 40 years in the Lawrence area. We serve children and families in Andover, North Andover, Lawrence, and Methuen as well as Billerica, Chelmsford, Dracut, Dunstable, Lowell, Tewksbury, Tyngsboro and Westford.
Partners in Child Development is a nonprofit organization dedicated to nurturing the growth and development of every child to maximize their potential. Our programs include our Early Intervention Program, our Anderson School, a special education school for children having complex medical needs, and Woodbridge School, our early childhood education program.
Our Early Intervention Program dramatically improves outcomes for children ages 0-3 who have developmental delays or are at risk for delays. Services are provided at no cost to the family through therapeutic interventions embedded in their daily routines. Our specialized staff is dedicated to helping children reach their developmental milestones.
Our Early Intervention professionals see the dramatic impact their work is having on each child and their families as they provide in-home services at no cost to the families. The professional satisfaction of these Early Intervention professionals is palpable as children receiving Early Intervention services from Partners in Child Development meet developmental goals before the age of three at 3 times the state average.
We offer you the opportunity to change the trajectory of a child’s life, every day at a critical time in their development.
We are looking for a full time/part time Registered Nurse (RN) to join our Early Intervention Program serving the Lawrence area.
The RN is a member of a multi-disciplinary team that provides evaluations and interventions to children and families in the EI Program. The RN conducts assessments, implements health care plans, responds to condition changes, and interprets medical diagnosis and treatment plans. The RN contributes to the development of the Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) including strategies and family outcomes to address the child’s individual needs. The RN provides services to clients through coordination and collaboration with team members, public/private and community service providers.
