This role gives you back what most home health leadership positions take away: a true multidisciplinary support structure, a stable Day-One benefits floor that respects the weight of what you carry, and an organization that has been independently certified — by its own people — as a great place to work.
Our client — a Forbes-recognized, Great Place to Work–Certified, faith-based not-for-profit health system consistently ranked among Becker's 150 Top Places to Work in Healthcare and named one of Fortune's Best Workplaces in Health Care — is seeking an experienced Manager of Home Health to lead clinical operations for its Northwest Georgia agency. You'll plan, coordinate, and direct all clinical activities and programs in accordance with regulatory guidelines and professional standards, providing direction across assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of patient care. You'll oversee scheduling, productivity, OASIS accuracy, quality improvement, hiring, and survey readiness — supported by an integrated post-acute platform that connects directly with a 69-bed acute-care hospital, a regional cancer center, surgical services, and a referral pipeline most standalone agencies would envy. You'll function as a valued leader on a multidisciplinary team — not as an isolated manager buried under documentation backlogs and survey panic.
WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT
- True Autonomy — You'll lead with real decision-making authority over scheduling, staffing, and quality programs — directly addressing the #1 protective factor research has identified for home health leader retention. No daily second-guessing from a corporate office three time zones away.
- Meaningful Caseload, Not Crushing Volume — A 69-bed feeder hospital with a stable referral pattern means a predictable census — not the boom-bust cycle that drives community-system burnout. You'll lead a team caring for patients in the place they most want to heal: their own home.
- Genuine Multidisciplinary Collaboration — Direct integration with hospital case management, oncology, cardiology, surgical services, and an embedded hospice line — peer support and clinical depth that most freestanding agencies simply can't offer. You're not the only RN leader in the building.
- Flexibility Where It Counts — Mon–Fri days are your default. Admin call rotates roughly once per month — among managers, not on top of you alone. The schedule is structured so that being a present spouse, parent, or human being is actually possible.
- Schedule & Work-Life Balance That's Real, Not Marketed — Paid time off begins on Day One — not after 90 days. Four weeks of 100% paid parental leave. A 'whole-person well-being' framework backed by mental-health resources, not just lip service. Pet benefits because your dog is family too.
- An Employer Whose People Say They Mean It — The system holds Great Place to Work® Certification with 79% of team members rating it a great place to work (vs. 57% at a typical U.S. company), 89% saying they feel good about how the organization contributes to community, and recognition on Forbes' America's Best Employers, Newsweek's Greatest Workplaces for Diversity, and Glassdoor's Best Places to Work 2025.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Plan, coordinate, and direct all clinical operations for the home health agency — owning patient outcomes, regulatory compliance, and team performance end-to-end.
- Lead a clinical team across the full assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation cycle, ensuring care plans match plan-of-care orders and OASIS responses defensibly support reimbursement.
- Translate operational indicators — staffing, productivity, revenue, expense, quality, HHCAHPS patient satisfaction, and clinical/financial scorecards — into action that improves outcomes and protects margin.
- Build, coach, and retain a high-performing team: interview, hire, develop, evaluate, and (when necessary) part with personnel in a way that preserves morale and protects culture.
- Own the quality improvement program, compliance and record audits, and survey readiness — with an experienced regional and corporate quality team behind you, not waiting for you to figure it out alone.
- Use audit findings to design and deliver targeted education that lifts clinical documentation accuracy, OASIS scoring, and patient outcomes.
- Partner across the integrated network — acute, surgical, oncology, hospice, and physician practice — to ensure smooth transitions of care and a referral experience that keeps patients in-system.
