Risk and Compliance Manager HealthCare

Risk & Compliance Manager

Vive Adolescent Care / Revive Hospital

St. George, Utah | Full-Time | On-Site

Vive Adolescent Care and Revive Hospital are seeking an experienced, confident, and highly adaptable Risk & Compliance Manager to help lead a strong culture of safety, accountability, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement across our behavioral health programs.

This is not a position for someone who simply checks boxes or maintains compliance binders. We are looking for someone who can understand the intent behind regulations, build practical processes around them, and confidently help teams apply those processes in a complex, fast-moving behavioral health environment.

Our ideal candidate is comfortable working where clinical care, hospital operations, licensing requirements, patient rights, employee practices, and organizational risk intersect. They can distinguish between an urgent compliance or safety issue and an opportunity for thoughtful process improvement—and respond appropriately to both.

Most importantly, this person must bring both confidence in process and flexibility in approach
. Healthcare does not always fit neatly into a checklist. The right candidate knows when consistency is essential, when additional information is needed, and how to adapt operationally without compromising safety, regulatory requirements, or organizational standards.

The Risk & Compliance Manager will partner closely with executive leadership, clinical leadership, nursing, medical providers, HR, operations, and frontline teams to identify risk and strengthen systems throughout the organization.

Key responsibilities include:

• Oversee and strengthen the organization's risk management and compliance program.
• Monitor compliance with applicable federal and state regulations, hospital licensing requirements, behavioral health regulations, accreditation standards, and internal policies.
• Coordinate and support responses to regulatory surveys, licensing reviews, complaints, investigations, and requests for information.
• Maintain organized systems for regulatory documentation, corrective actions, plans of correction, and follow-up.
• Review critical incidents, grievances, patient rights concerns, safety events, and other identified areas of organizational risk.
• Help determine when an issue represents an isolated event versus a broader system or process concern.
• Facilitate root-cause analysis and performance improvement when appropriate.
• Identify gaps in policies, SOPs, training, documentation, or operational processes and help build practical solutions.
• Track risk and compliance trends and communicate meaningful findings to leadership.
• Conduct internal audits and follow identified concerns through resolution rather than simply reporting deficiencies.
• Assist departments in translating regulatory requirements into workflows that staff can realistically and consistently follow.
• Partner with leadership to develop and implement policies, procedures, training, and accountability systems.
• Maintain appropriate documentation related to compliance activities and organizational risk.
• Support HIPAA, confidentiality, patient rights, incident reporting, documentation, and other healthcare compliance functions.
• Work collaboratively with legal counsel and outside regulatory or compliance resources when appropriate.
• Help create a culture where compliance is viewed as part of excellent patient care—not simply an administrative requirement.

We are looking for someone who is experienced, steady, curious, organized, and confident
.

The strongest candidate will demonstrate:

You are comfortable slowing down a complicated issue, gathering the right information, identifying the applicable standard, and creating a defensible path forward. You don't need to have every answer immediately, but you know how to find the answer and move the organization toward resolution.

Behavioral healthcare changes quickly. Priorities shift, unusual situations arise, and regulations do not always provide a step-by-step operational answer. You can adjust your approach without…
