Interim Director of Nursing (DON, RN) – Travel SNF Leadership

High-Impact Interim Role | Premium Pay | Travel Support | Skilled Nursing

Strong Leaders Are Needed Now.

Some nursing homes need more than coverage, they need leadership.

We’re hiring experienced Interim Directors of Nursing (DONs) who can walk into Skilled Nursing Facilities with confidence, stabilize operations, support overwhelmed teams, and help buildings regain momentum during times of transition.

This is a role for experienced nursing leaders who know how to:

step into challenging environments
build trust quickly
support staff without ego
improve systems fast
and lead calmly under pressure

If you thrive in fast-moving SNF environments and want meaningful work where your leadership truly matters, we want to talk with you.

Why Experienced DONs Choose Interim Leadership With Us

Make an Immediate Difference

You’ll step into facilities that genuinely need experienced leadership and support. Your work will directly impact residents, staff morale, clinical outcomes, and operational stability.

Autonomy & Trust

We trust experienced leaders to lead. You’ll have the freedom to assess situations, make decisions, and guide teams without constant micromanagement.

Variety Without Long-Term Politics

Work with different Skilled Nursing teams across Minnesota while avoiding the burnout and politics that often come with permanent placements.

Competitive Compensation + Travel Support

We offer strong pay packages, travel assistance, and consistent opportunities for experienced interim leaders.

Future Leadership Opportunities

Many of our interim DONs are later considered for permanent leadership roles including:

Director of Nursing
Regional Clinical Leadership
Assisted Living Director
Executive Director
DHS Roles

What You’ll Be Doing

Interim DON Leadership

Step into SNFs during leadership vacancies, leaves, surveys, or organizational transitions
Stabilize nursing operations and support facility leadership teams
Assess staffing, workflows, and clinical systems quickly
Provide visible, hands-on leadership throughout the building

Clinical Oversight & Survey Readiness

Oversee resident assessments, care planning, and clinical documentation
Ensure compliance with CMS and Minnesota Department of Health regulations
Support infection prevention and quality assurance initiatives
Prepare facilities for surveys, audits, and inspections

Team Development & Staff Support

Mentor ADONs, nurse managers, and floor nurses
Help improve morale, accountability, and communication
Support recruitment, onboarding, and retention efforts
Lead with professionalism, empathy, and consistency

Operational Improvement

Identify gaps in care delivery and nursing operations
Implement corrective action plans and best practices
Partner with Administrators and leadership teams to improve outcomes

What We’re Looking For

Required Qualifications

Active Minnesota RN license in good standing
Previous DON or ADON experience in Skilled Nursing
Strong understanding of SNF operations, CMS, and MDH regulations
Ability to lead confidently in fast-paced or high-pressure environments
Willingness to travel throughout Minnesota

Preferred Experience

Previous interim or turnaround leadership experience
Multi-state RN license
Experience supporting underperforming or transitioning facilities

This Role Is Ideal For Someone Who:

Enjoys solving operational challenges
Leads with confidence and accountability
Can earn trust quickly with nursing staff
Prefers action over politics
Wants flexibility, variety, and meaningful impact
Takes pride in helping buildings succeed during difficult transitions

What This Role Is NOT

Not an office-only leadership role
Not a low-accountability environment
Not ideal for brand-new nurse leaders
Not for someone uncomfortable stepping into challenging situations

This is a hands-on leadership role for experienced DONs who know how to walk into a building, support a team, and make things better.

About Us

We partner with Skilled Nursing and Senior Care communities across Minnesota to provide experienced clinical leadership during critical transitions. Our team understands healthcare operations, survey pressures, staffing challenges, and what strong nursing leadership actually looks like.

We believe great interim leaders deserve:

respect
transparency
strong communication
and opportunities that match their experience
