We are looking for an RN to perform site visits for our clients on the Medicaid In Home Support Services (IHSS) program. These visits involve visiting the client's home during a caregiver's shift, reviewing the client's care plan with the client and caregiver, identifying if any changes need to be made in the care plan, and certifying that the caregiver is proficient in the performance of all IHSS-related tasks. There are a few forms addressing these requirements that need to be completed.
Qualifications include at least two years as a licensed RN, preferably but not requiring familiarity with the Medicaid IHSS program, administrative thoroughness, and strong inter-personal skills. Training will be provided to ensure appropriate understanding and completion of the forms involved.
The pay for each visit, which should not require more than an hour to complete, is $50. There will likely be 4-6 visits per month but that can vary depending on the rate of client intake.

- Flexible Schedule
- Weekly pay
- Direct Deposit
- Opportunity for Paid Time Off
