The Opportunity

We are seeking a high-energy, customer-service-driven LNHA to lead our 140-bed skilled nursing facility in Naperville. With a rising census and specialized units for Memory Care and Dialysis, we need a leader who is "the face of the building"-someone who thrives on being visible, understands the pulse of the facility, and prioritizes resident and family satisfaction above all else.

• Customer Service: Act as the primary point of contact for family concerns and community relations, turning feedback into actionable improvements.
• Regulatory Compliance: Ensure the facility remains in a constant state of survey readiness, particularly within the specialized Memory Care and Dialysis units.
• Leadership & Retention: Foster a culture of accountability where staff feel supported but held to high standards of care and conduct.

The Ideal Candidate

• A "People Person": You believe that a nursing home is a home first. You know your residents by name and your staff by their strengths.
• Responsible & Accountable: You don't wait for reports; you see whats happening in real-time and take ownership of the results.

Qualifications

• Must hold a current, unencumbered Illinois LNHA License .
• Must have a minimum of 2-5 years of experience as an Administrator in a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF).
• Proven track record of maintaining high-quality care and strong regulatory standing.
• Exceptional communication and conflict-resolution skills.

Benefits

• Competitive Salary ($130k-$160k) with performance-based incentives.
• Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision insurance.
• 401(k) with company match.
• Freedom from Admissions/Finance: Dedicated teams handle the paperwork so you can lead the people.
