Who they are
You would be a Home Health RN based out of Interim HealthCare of Wausau at 327 N 17th Ave, Suite 7. The work is one patient at a time in the home after hospital, rehab, or nursing-facility discharge, with flexible assignments and an emphasis on autonomy and work-life balance.
More about Interim HealthCare of Wausau
Posted pay for the role sits around $75,000–$85,000 a year (about $36–$41 an hour), with mileage reimbursement, and the employer states it pays 90% of employee medical coverage alongside PTO, holiday pay, dental, vision, and a 401(k). Beyond home health, the Wausau office lists hospice, palliative care, personal care, and medical staffing. Families have called the hospice team caring and willing to go further than expected; a long-term staffing client said Interim was the most reliable agency they had used in more than twenty years. Growth support includes tuition discounts through Rasmussen University plus online training and CEUs. The fit is clearer if you already hold an active Wisconsin RN license and at least a year of experience—ideally home health—plus CPR. There is no residency path listed, so brand-new graduates will need to weigh that bar before applying.
Affiliations include the Alzheimer's Association, Staffing Industry Analysts, and the NHPCO We Honor Veterans program.
