Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) – Join a Strong Leadership Team!

Are you a nurse leader looking to take the next step in your career? We’re looking for an Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) to join our dynamic clinical leadership team at a well-established, 125-bed skilled nursing facility in Chicago.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a motivated RN who thrives in a collaborative environment and wants to make a real impact on resident care, team culture, and clinical outcomes.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Work Side-by-Side with an Experienced DON – You won’t just report to leadership—you’ll be leadership.

 Career Growth Potential – Perfect for someone ready to move toward a Director-level role in the future.

Supportive Team Culture – Join a leadership group that values communication, clinical excellence, and accountability.

What You’ll Do:

  • Assist in planning, organizing, and directing overall nursing services

  • Support and mentor nursing staff to ensure high-quality care delivery

  • Help ensure compliance with state and federal regulations

  • Participate in quality assurance, staff development, and clinical improvement efforts

 

What We’re Looking For:

  • Licensed RN in Illinois

  • Previous experience in long-term care or skilled nursing

  • Leadership experience (ADON, Unit Manager, RN Supervisor, etc.)

  • Strong interpersonal, organizational, and clinical skills

  • Passion for resident-centered care and team development
