Evergreen Healthcare Group is seeking a compassionate, relationship-driven Clinical Liaison / Respiratory Therapist to support our skilled nursing and post-acute care communities in the Seattle area.

In this regional role, you’ll serve as a vital connection between hospitals, families, physicians, and our care teams — helping ensure residents transition smoothly into post-acute care while receiving high-quality respiratory and clinical support.

This position is ideal for an LPN, RN, RT, or other clinically experienced healthcare professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys building strong healthcare partnerships, and is passionate about improving patient outcomes.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Competitive salary range: $90,000–$120,000 annually

• Mileage reimbursement for work-related travel

• Private healthcare plan (Medical, Dental, Vision)

• DailyPay – access earned wages before payday

• Life Insurance & Employee Assistance Program

• Professional development and ongoing training opportunities

• Supportive leadership team with opportunities for growth

• Opportunity to make a direct impact on patient transitions and quality of care

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain strong relationships with hospitals, physicians, discharge planners, case managers, and referral partners

• Coordinate seamless admissions and transitions from acute care to post-acute/skilled nursing settings

• Evaluate referrals and assist with clinical screenings and pre-admission assessments

• Conduct respiratory assessments and monitor residents with cardiopulmonary conditions as needed

• Administer and oversee respiratory therapies including oxygen therapy, aerosol treatments, tracheostomy care, suctioning, and ventilator support when applicable

• Collaborate closely with interdisciplinary care teams to develop and implement individualized care plans

• Serve as a clinical resource for residents, families, and referral sources

• Maintain accurate documentation in compliance with facility policy and state/federal regulations

• Support census development initiatives and track referral activity

• Ensure respiratory equipment is maintained, cleaned, and operated properly

• Participate in quality assurance and regulatory readiness activities

Qualifications:

Required:

• Current Washington State LPN, RN, or Respiratory Therapist license

• RRT or CRT credential preferred for RT candidates

• Current BLS certification

• Strong communication, organizational, and relationship-building skills

• Ability to work independently and travel throughout the Seattle market

Preferred:

• Experience in skilled nursing, long-term care, post-acute care, or hospital discharge planning

• Experience with ventilator-dependent or tracheostomy residents

• Background in clinical liaison, admissions, respiratory therapy, or case management

At Evergreen Healthcare Group, we believe people always come first. We strive to foster a culture built on compassion, accountability, collaboration, and growth — for both our residents and our employees.

If you're ready to bring your clinical expertise into a role where relationships, transitions, and outcomes truly matter, we’d love to hear from you.
