The Director of Nursing (DON) is the clinical leader of Project New Generation LLC, holding dual responsibility
across both the AZDHHS-licensed home health program and the DDD service lines. On the home health side, the
DON runs all clinical operations, manages and grows nursing and clinical staff, recruits clients and patients, and
ensures full AZDHHS clinical compliance — operating within the framework of existing policies, procedures, and
protocols already established under the license. On the DDD side, the DON serves as the clinical resource and
medical support partner for the DDD Director and Group Home — stepping in for any medical, nursing, pharmacy,
or health-related needs across the organization. This is a highly collaborative, cross-functional clinical leadership
role that is essential to both the quality of client care and the company's overall success.

practices, and company standards.

clinical staff including RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and home health aides.

personality compatibility, and geographic proximity — ensuring the best possible match for client outcomes and
staff satisfaction.

setting professional development goals, and documenting all findings.
• Ensure all nursing and clinical staff maintain current licensure, certifications, required training hours, and
background clearances.
