Radiant North - Marion, IN 46952

Overview

Salary Range $36.00 - $36.00 Hourly Education Level Registered Nurse (RN)

Description

Are you an RN who believes you can make a difference beyond the clinical walls? Do you enjoy meeting clients where they are to give them the treatment they deserve?

Radiant Health is looking for a compassionate and dedicated Registered Nurse (RN) to join our Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team.

This is an opportunity to use your nursing skills in a community-based behavioral health setting where your work can have a direct and lasting impact on individuals living with serious mental illness and substance use disorders.

As an ACT RN, you'll work closely with an interdisciplinary team to provide nursing care, medication support, health education, care coordination, and ongoing assessment helping clients achieve greater stability, independence, and wellness in their own communities.

What You'll Do

• Conduct comprehensive assessments of clients' physical, psychiatric, medical, and social needs.
• Monitor mental health symptoms, medication effectiveness, side effects, and adherence concerns.
• Administer long-acting psychotropic medications via IM injection in community settings, including correctional facilities when applicable.
• Complete medication reconciliation and coordinate medication deliveries and refills.
• Assess and triage mental health and physical health concerns and coordinate appropriate care.
• Review laboratory results and ensure appropriate follow-up.
• Provide medication education and help clients understand their treatment and wellness needs.
• Coordinate healthcare services and communicate with providers, pharmacies, hospitals, and community resources.
• Collaborate closely with psychiatrists, case managers, therapists, peer support specialists, and other members of the ACT team.
• Build trusting relationships with clients while supporting their goals for recovery, stability, and improved quality of life.
• Provide services in the community, meeting clients where they are rather than limiting care to a traditional office setting.

Why ACT Nursing?

This isn't your typical nursing job.

Instead of seeing the same patient for a brief encounter and sending them on their way, you'll have the opportunity to know your clients, understand their challenges, and become an important part of their support system.

You'll use your nursing expertise while developing skills in:

• Community mental health
• Psychiatric nursing
• Medication management
• Care coordination
• Crisis assessment and intervention
• Health education
• Recovery-focused care
• Integrated physical and behavioral healthcare

We're Looking for an RN Who Is

• Compassionate, patient, and nonjudgmental.
• Comfortable working with individuals experiencing serious mental illness and/or substance use disorders.
• Skilled at building relationships and establishing trust.
• Confident assessing changing physical and psychiatric needs.
• Comfortable working independently while also collaborating with an interdisciplinary team.
• Flexible and able to adapt to the needs of clients in community settings.
• Passionate about helping people achieve meaningful recovery and improved quality of life.
