Who they are

You would step into Behavioral Health Allies in Kansas City as a nurse whose day is built around people living in community settings, not a single tower floor.

More about Behavioral Health Allies

In the Community Living RN role you provide clinical oversight and medical management across residential and group homes, staying aligned with Missouri DMH standards, physician orders, and care plans while working largely on your own across multiple sites. The organization runs a continuum for developmental disabilities and complex behavioral needs—ABA, early intervention, education, and community living—and has opened an 84,000-sq-ft building at 4400 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard that brings educational, clinical, and community living services under one roof. Full-time scheduling is described with flexible hours; benefits listed for the RN role include medical, dental, vision, HSA/FSA, short- and long-term disability, OnDemand Pay, and a 2P Incentive Plan bonus program meant to grow with you. Third-party cards have estimated the Community Living RN band near $43,200–$72,000 a year, but that figure is predicted rather than a confirmed employer-posted range, and review aggregates show only about 39% of employees satisfied with pay. If purpose in developmental-disability care matters more to you than a classic hospital unit, this is the concrete shape of the work.

Community-based services across the lifespan for people with developmental disabilities, using ABA and positive behavioral supports; continuum spans early intervention, education, clinical care, and community living.
