Ability to review clinical documentation and identify appropriate levels of care and facility placement. Strong data entry and documentation skills, with accuracy in verifying and entering physician orders.

Additional Skills & Qualifications Experience working in a skilled nursing facility is strongly preferred. Experience with MatrixCare or Point of Care EMR systems. Prior experience in long-term care, hospice, or post-acute care environments. Strong organizational and time management skills to handle multiple referrals and tasks simultaneously. Ability to work effectively in a collaborative office team of clinical and non-clinical staff. Comfort transitioning from hands-on clinical roles to a non-clinical, office-based nursing position. Reliability and consistent attendance to support continuity of intake operations. Openness to contract work with the potential for contract extensions and possible transition to a direct role, depending on business needs and performance. Work Environment This role is based in an office building in Woods Cross, Utah, separate from any care facility, and consultants will work only in the office environment. The setting is business casual, with a professional yet relaxed dress code. You will work alongside approximately 32 colleagues in the office, with about 9 people on the immediate intake team, fostering a collaborative and supportive atmosphere. The schedule follows a Monday-Friday rotating shift between 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM (5x8), with a requirement to work a weekend approximately every 6-8 weeks and to take on-call duty on a similar rotation, with days off adjusted accordingly. Work is performed at a computer using electronic medical record systems such as MatrixCare or Point of Care, focusing on documentation, coordination, and communication rather than direct patient care. The position is structured as a 13-week contract with a strong likelihood of extension based on business needs and performance, and there may be opportunities to move into a direct role over time. This environment is well-suited for nurses seeking a predictable office schedule, no hands-on patient care, and the opportunity to use their clinical knowledge in a non-clinical setting. #LI-SC1 Job Type & Location This is a Contract to Hire position based out of Woods Cross, UT.
