Join the Cleveland Clinic team, where you will work alongside passionate caregivers and provide patient-first healthcare.

Our Home Care Nursing department is looking to add a Registered Nurse for our eastern counties. This position serves Eastern Cuyahoga, Lake and Geauga counties. As a homecare nurse, you will provide practical support in the home to patients and their families to prevent hospital readmissions.

• Is resourceful and eager to learn.

• Can critically think and problem solve for patients' best interests.

• Provides care with compassion, empathy, and positivity.

• Can work collaboratively with our interdisciplinary team.

As a Homecare Nurse, you will be provided with field training with the support of a preceptor as well as education on the use of homecare specific EMR. We offer tuition reimbursement as well as additional profession development provided through daily huddles, monthly Nursing Townhalls, and quarterly All-staff Townhalls.

At Cleveland Clinic, we know what matters most. That's why we treat our caregivers as if they are our own family, and we are always creating ways to be there for you. Here, you'll find that we offer: resources to learn and grow, a fulfilling career for everyone, and comprehensive benefits that invest in your health, your physical and mental well-being and your future. When you join Cleveland Clinic, you'll be part of a supportive caregiver family that will be united in shared values and purpose to fulfill our promise of being the best place to receive care and the best place to work in healthcare.

This full-time position is to care for patients in their homes in our East team (serving patients in Eastern Cuyahoga county).
