South Hills Rehabilitation Center | Eugene, OR
Not every Director of Nursing role is the same.
If you're looking for a position where you're expected to fix everything alone, this isn't it.
At South Hills Rehabilitation Center, we're investing in nursing leadership. We're searching for an experienced Director of Nursing who is passionate about building strong systems, mentoring nurses, maintaining continuous survey readiness, and creating a culture where both residents and staff thrive.
This is an opportunity to lead—not simply react.
We're looking for a DON who enjoys:
Building clinical systems that last—not constantly putting out fires
Leading successful state surveys through preparation, education, and accountability
Coaching and developing nurse leaders into high-performing teams
Improving quality measures and clinical outcomes
Creating a positive nursing culture where staff feel supported and engaged
If you enjoy making lasting improvements instead of managing daily challenges, you'll be a great fit.
One of the biggest reasons DONs leave their roles is lack of support.
That's why we've intentionally built a leadership structure designed to help you succeed.
You'll have:
Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON)
Staff Development Coordinator dedicated to education and competency
Clinical Scheduler assisting with staffing coordination
Director of Rehabilitation as an interdisciplinary partner
Dedicated Clinical Recruiter focused on nursing recruitment
Regional Clinical Partner providing hands-on coaching and on-site support

Responsibilities include:
Lead and mentor the nursing leadership team
