Butte Home Health & Hospice | Chico, California.

Help Turn Clinical Excellence into Better Patient Care.

At Butte Home Health & Hospice, we believe every patient deserves exceptional care—and continuous improvement starts with strong clinical oversight.

We're looking for an experienced Quality RN who is passionate about patient care, clinical excellence, regulatory compliance, and helping clinicians succeed. This is an exciting opportunity to help shape quality outcomes across one of Northern California's leading nonprofit home health and hospice organizations.

If you enjoy reviewing clinical documentation, identifying opportunities for improvement, supporting clinicians, and helping turn quality findings into better patient care, we'd love to meet you.

The Quality RN supports our Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) program by reviewing clinical documentation, monitoring quality outcomes, identifying trends and risks, and collaborating with clinical leadership to improve patient care across our Home Health and Hospice programs. This position serves as a clinical quality resource and strategic partner to leadership, helping ensure that documentation supports the patient’s condition, plan of care, services provided, regulatory requirements, and organizational standards.

Rather than simply identifying problems, you’ll help find solutions, strengthen clinical practice, and turn quality findings into meaningful improvements.

• Evaluate documentation for completeness, accuracy, consistency, and regulatory compliance
• Review clinical records for alignment between the patient’s condition, assessment findings, plan of care, interventions, and outcomes

• Provide clear, constructive feedback to clinicians and clinical leaders

• Patient complaints and grievances
• Adverse events and clinical incidents
• Other clinical and operational quality indicators

• Identify trends and opportunities for clinical improvement
• Collaborate with clinical managers to investigate quality concerns and determine root causes
• Help develop and implement Performance Improvement projects
• Establish baseline performance and monitor progress over time
• Assist with corrective action plans and follow-up monitoring
• Provide education and coaching based on audit findings and identified trends
• Help translate regulatory requirements and quality findings into practical improvements for frontline clinicians

• Support compliance with Medicare Conditions of Participation and other applicable federal and state requirements
• Assist with survey readiness and ongoing regulatory compliance
• Participate in preparation for state, federal, accreditation, and payer audits or reviews
• Support clinical record requests, ADRs, audits, and other quality-related reviews as needed
• Monitor changes in clinical regulations and quality requirements…
