About Us

Core Health Group Corp. is a Georgia DCH-licensed Private Home Care Provider (License PHCP044400) and an approved Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) provider. We specialize exclusively in in-home care for medically complex children. We believe matching each client with the right nurse is the most important decision we make, and care is curated to each individual client rather than run from a call center.

The Position

We are seeking experienced Registered Nurses for one-on-one, high-acuity pediatric cases in the Columbus area. Our clients include children who are technology-dependent and medically complex, with needs that may include tracheostomy care, ventilator support, feeding tubes, seizure disorders, and complex neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy. This is continuous one-on-one care in the family home, not a facility caseload. Current openings are day shift, 6 to 8 hours.

Responsibilities

  • Provide skilled nursing care according to the physician-ordered plan of care
  • Perform tracheostomy care, suctioning, and ventilator monitoring as ordered
  • Administer and monitor medications
  • Take vital signs and perform respiratory monitoring and ongoing assessment
  • Provide feeding tube care and administration as ordered
  • Maintain seizure precautions and respond to seizure activity
  • Assist with positioning, turning, transfers, and wheelchair mobility
  • Recognize and report changes in the client's condition to the physician and the office
  • Complete accurate nursing notes and all required documentation

Requirements

  • Active, unrestricted Georgia RN license in good standing
  • Current BLS/CPR certification
  • Experience in high-acuity pediatric care, trach and vent experience strongly preferred
  • Comfort caring for and communicating with non-verbal clients and their families
  • Ability to pass a criminal background check
  • Current negative TB screening
  • Reliable transportation and dependable attendance
  • Ability to work as a 1099 independent contractor and provide a completed W-9
  • Willingness to complete an annual competency review to maintain the contract

Why Contract With Us

  • $44.00 to $50.00 per hour, based on experience and shift
  • Day shift hours, no nights required
  • Premium rates available for weekends and difficult-to-fill cases
  • Direct patient care only, no administrative or supervisory caseload
  • One-on-one assignments with consistent clients and schedules
  • Direct access to office leadership, not a call center
  • Long-term cases with steady, predictable hours
