Like doing admissions well? Make every new resident’s first day a good one.
Bellevue Post Acute is hiring an Admissions Nurse (LPN or RN) for our PM shift. You’ll own the admission process from start to finish: the head-to-toe assessment, reconciling hospital orders, talking with the physician and building the first care plan. You’ll be the nurse who sets each resident up for a safe recovery from their first hour with us. If you’re detail-oriented, organized and steady under pressure, this role is built for you.
What You’ll Do
Complete full admission assessments within 2 hours of arrival. This covers vital signs (including pain and O2 sats), cardiovascular and respiratory status, a head-to-toe skin check, mobility, cognition, communication, vision and hearing, oral cavity, and bowel and bladder function.
Complete the standardized admission screens: Braden skin, fall risk, pain, and bowel and bladder.
Reconcile hospital orders against facility standard orders. Transcribe and schedule all orders in PointClickCare (PCC).
Coordinate with physicians, pharmacy and dietary. Notify the attending physician of each admission, send verified orders to pharmacy and send diet slips to the kitchen.
Make sure medications arrive on time. Confirm meds are on hand before the first scheduled dose, and tell the physician about any delivery delays.
Start each resident’s care plan once the admission assessment is done.
Run the bowel and bladder program according to facility protocol.
Oversee psychotropic medication use on the rehab unit. Monitor behaviors, keep the physician informed and attend Quarterly Psychotropic Reviews.
Be a go-to resource who guides and supports the nursing staff on your shift.
Promote safety, teamwork and clear communication with residents, families, physicians and staff.
Why Work at Bellevue Post Acute?
A focused role. You concentrate on admissions instead of juggling a full med pass on top of them.
Your skills are valued. Your assessment and clinical judgment directly shape each resident’s outcome.
A team that works together. You’ll have nursing leadership you can reach and coworkers who back each other up.
Room to grow. Admissions experience is a strong step toward MDS, unit management and leadership roles.
A great Eastside location in Bellevue, close to I-405 and SR-520.
