Trust & transparency
About
An employer-focused resource for skilled nursing and assisted living operators hiring or keeping a Director of Nursing or Assistant Director of Nursing.
What this site is
Director Of Nursing Search publishes practical tools and research for administrators, owners and regional clinical leaders at independent skilled nursing facilities and assisted living operators who need to hire or retain a Director of Nursing or Assistant Director of Nursing.
The site does not employ nurses, fill shifts or act as a staffing agency. When an operator is ready to hire, it can connect them with a vetted recruiting partner that specializes in direct-hire placement - a relationship that is disclosed on the advertising disclosure page.
Why it is narrow
DON turnover is high, a weak hire can affect survey results and star ratings, and no specialist resource owns the decision. The coverage stays on DON and ADON roles at independent operators by design.
How we work
Rankings follow a published testing process and scoring methodology. Numbers are sourced from BLS and CMS data and cited where they appear. We do not publish testimonials or placement claims we cannot verify.
