Compensation & Opportunity · DNS-in-Training salary: $120,000 annually. Upon successful transition to Director of Nursing Services, compensation will increase to the established DNS salary range of $140,000-$145,000 annually. · Structured 90-day leadership development and mentorship period. · Progressive transition into DNS responsibilities rather than being expected to manage the entire role on day one. · Upon successful completion of the program and transition to Director of Nursing Services, compensation will increase to the established DNS salary. · Continued support from facility leadership and Apple Rehab Corporate Clinical Services. If you are ready to move from nursing leadership into the Director of Nursing role, we would like to meet you.
