More about Premier Nursing and Rehab Center of Far Rockaway
The work is 24-hour skilled nursing with RNs, LPNs, and CNAs — short-term sub-acute rehab, long-term care, and pre- and post-operative planning for patients and families. There is a completely renovated sub-acute unit with its own physical therapy gym. On a posted full-time RN line you would work 7-3 or 11-7. There is also a part-time weekend RN role that requires Saturday and Sunday, with possible extra weekdays. The RN postings say you supervise LPNs and CNAs. An NP is on staff, the Medical Director has Far Rockaway and local-hospital ties, and the primary care physician is described as always available. Clinical specialists give direct care and sit between the team, the patient, and the family. From our two postings, hourly pay runs $22.00 to $34.47, with a median of $28.24. A public listing states $22-$24.65/hr but tags it CNA while the copy describes part-time weekend RN work, so you will want the rate confirmed for the exact role. There is no published nurse-to-patient ratio, and no residency, tuition help, or career ladder on record.
Resident-centered, family-oriented skilled nursing in Far Rockaway; the employer says it has provided care for over 50 years and continually reinvents itself.
