Job Description
Life Care Centers is seeking a dedicated Unit Care Coordinator to support compassionate, patient-first care on one of our healthcare units. In this role, you will serve as a key liaison between residents, families, nursing, therapy, and medical providers to ensure that each patient receives coordinated, high-quality services aligned with their individualized care plan. Working within our senior living and rehabilitation environment, you will help organize and oversee the daily clinical flow of the unit, monitor patient status, and support the interdisciplinary team in delivering safe and timely care. The Unit Care Coordinator will assist with admissions and discharges, help gather and review clinical information, and support the development, implementation, and evaluation of person-centered care plans. You will coordinate care conferences, communicate changes in condition to appropriate team members, and ensure that documentation is accurate, timely, and compliant with facility, state, and federal standards. This position requires strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to prioritize in a fast-paced healthcare setting. Working closely with nursing leadership, you will contribute to quality improvement initiatives, help monitor key clinical indicators, and reinforce best practices in infection control, fall prevention, skin integrity, and overall resident safety. You will also serve as a resource for residents and families, providing clear, compassionate communication, education about care plans and services, and support during transitions of care. At Life Care Centers, you will join a team-based environment built around respect, collaboration, and a shared commitment to excellence in healthcare outcomes. You will have the opportunity to grow professionally while helping residents achieve their highest level of function and quality of life in a family-focused setting. This position typically offers a stable full-time schedule with eligibility for comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and retirement savings options, along with opportunities for ongoing training and professional development.

Frequently asked questions
What license do I need to apply?
An active state license in your discipline (PT, OT, SLP, LCSW, LPC, BCBA, etc.) in good standing. Therapy licensure is state-specific — the PT, OT, and ASLP-IC compacts let you practice in member states without a separate license.
Is this a school-year or year-round position?
School-based therapy roles typically follow a 9- or 10-month school-year calendar with summers off. Outpatient, hospital, home-health, and telehealth positions are year-round with PTO. Both options are widely available — check the job description for specifics.
What experience is expected?
Most therapy roles welcome new grads through mid-career clinicians. Specialty positions (acute care, NICU, pediatric feeding, hand therapy) typically prefer 2+ years plus relevant certifications.
