Village Assisted Living Nursing Pool is a staffing plan and program created to provide flexibility with the staffing assignment schedule throughout Village Assisted Living and Residential Care. Associates working exclusively in the Pool are classified as PRN and scheduled as needed. Guidelines regarding the Village Assisted Living PRN staffing plan include:

1. PRN associates are not eligible for Paid Time Off or health benefits; however, they may contribute to the TSA plan offered by the Village per the current provisions of the TSA plan.
2. Nursing Pool associates must work a minimum of 3 shifts per month. At least two of these shifts must include a weekend shift (weekend shift is defined as Saturday and Sunday for day and evening shifts, and Friday and Saturday for night shifts). Additionally, Nursing Pool associates will be scheduled to work at least three (3) of the six (6) holidays, as defined by JKV Associate Policy #327, per calendar year. Failure to meet this minimum requirement may jeopardize the PRN status and result in separation of employment. Additional hours are usually available upon request.
3. As PRN, Nursing Pool associates, are limited to 1440 hours of work each calendar year (refer to Status Classifications Policy 01-05.6500.114). PRN associates who reach the maximum prior to the end of a calendar year have two options: 1) Apply for transfer to an open full-time or part-time position, or 2) Be removed from the schedule for the remainder of the calendar year. It will be up to Staffing to manage a Nursing Pool associate's hours as they deem appropriate.
4. Nursing Pool associates must provide the staffing coordinator a calendar of preferred work shifts (hours/days) or availability for the upcoming month by the 1st day of that month.
5. Partial shifts may meet the requirement for a scheduled shift.
6. Nursing Pool associates must work where assigned throughout Village Assisted Living and Residential Care.

These VILLAGE ASSISTED LIVING Nursing Pool guidelines are subject to change. Benefits and pay are subject to change based on a change in status or other relevant change.
