As a licensed nursing home administrator, you’re responsible for an overwhelming amount of departments, employees, and most importantly, patients. It is possible to provide quality care, change lives, and have a stable career as a nursing home administrator. Let’s go X!

The key to longevity is running a high quality business. If you provide high quality care, the rest will follow.

A day in the life of an administrator: Early morning rounds. Stand up. Emails. Answering all call lights. Taking care of your employees and patients.

Early mornings & late nights. Managing a 24/7 building is difficult, but you do it because you care!

When you’re an administrator, money is a good thing. It allows you to get things your facility needs.

Tough week at the facility. Handling issues is part of an administrators role, you have to be level headed and confident in all of your decision making.

Medicare and Medicaid are under close observation by the US GOVT. This will be an interesting turn in the near future.

If you’re interested in being a skilled nursing facility administrator because it’s “easy”. It’s not the right career for you.

Home health, hospice, assisted living, and residential assisted living’s are NOTHING compared to the operations behind Skilled Nursing Facilities. If you can run a SNF, you can run any of the above.
