About this role
BAYADA Home Health Care is seeking an experienced home health RN to serve as a Clinical Field Educator in Tucson, splitting time between direct patient care and training newly hired RNs and LPNs. You'd spend at least half your time in the field managing your own small caseload—admitting clients, performing assessments, administering medications, managing wounds, and documenting care on tablet-based systems. The other portion involves precepting new clinicians through one-on-one mentoring during home visits, monitoring their progression through orientation, providing feedback via in-person meetings or Teams, and helping develop other preceptors. You'll also collaborate with the Clinical Manager and Director of Clinical Education on onboarding coordination, competency maintenance, and education classes.
This role requires an active Arizona RN license and prior experience with Medicare-Certified Home Health, with HCHB experience preferred. You need strong clinical judgment, genuine passion for teaching and mentorship, and the ability to lead by example while building relationships across office and field teams. The position is full-time and based in Tucson.
If you're an experienced home health nurse who finds satisfaction in shaping how new clinicians develop—and want to keep hands-on patient care central to your work—this combines clinical leadership with direct care in a way that most educator-only roles don't offer.
