Visiting Nurse Association of Ohio Posted by OneDigital Recruiting Services
Visiting Nurse Association of Ohio is building something rare — a community-based behavioral health program inside one of the state's most established home health organizations — and they need a clinical leader who can run with it. You'll oversee psychiatric and medical nursing services, grow census, and be out in the community building the referral relationships that make this program thrive. If you want to lead from behind a desk, this isn't the role. If you want to be in the field, mentoring clinicians, solving problems in real time, and shaping a program from the ground up — keep reading.
What You'll Do:
- Lead clinical operations for VNA of Ohio's community-based behavioral health home health program
- Drive census growth by building referral partnerships with hospitals, EDs, physician practices, and community organizations
- Ensure compliance across CMS, CHAP, CARF, Medicaid, and state requirements
- Oversee quality metrics across dual frameworks — OASIS and Medicaid mental health measures
- Recruit, develop, and retain behavioral health nurses, psychiatric providers, therapists, and care coordination staff
- Support crisis response and escalation for patients experiencing behavioral health decompensation
- Partner with the Medical Director and interdisciplinary teams to deliver integrated, patient-centered care
What We're Looking For:
- Active, unencumbered RN license in Ohio
- BSN required; MSN or related master's preferred
- 3–5 years of behavioral health clinical experience, including mental health and co-occurring conditions
- 2 years of leadership or supervisory experience
- Knowledge of Medicare home health regulations, behavioral health standards, and payer requirements
- Hospital, ED, inpatient psych, or acute behavioral health experience strongly preferred
- Familiarity with PDGM, CHAP, CARF, and Medicaid documentation standards a plus
Why VNA of Ohio:
VNA of Ohio has been a trusted name in home-based care across the state for decades — and now they're expanding into community behavioral health with the same commitment to clinical excellence that built their reputation. You'll have the backing of an organization with deep roots in the communities it serves, strong payer and provider relationships already in place, and leadership committed to investing in this program. They're not looking for someone to maintain what exists — they're looking for someone to build what's next. If you want ownership and impact, not just a title, this is the role.
