Track outstanding risk-related action items to closure.

Conduct or coordinate audits related to quality, compliance, and documentation standards.
Analyze audit findings, identify trends, and prepare quality, risk, and compliance reports as assigned

Policy, Process & Manager Support

Assist departments and facility leaders with policy review, updates, standardization, and rollout.
Support development of practical procedures, checklists, and operational tools.
Act as a resource to Administrators, Directors of Care, Nursing Services Managers, and other facility leaders on quality, risk, and compliance matters.
Support orientation of new managers regarding quality, risk, inspection readiness, and reporting processes.
Recommend corrective actions and escalate unresolved or high-risk matters to GEM Operations leadership.

Qualifications

Post-secondary education in nursing, healthcare administration, quality management, risk management, health services management, or a related field.
Minimum 3 years of experience in long-term care, healthcare operations, quality assurance, compliance, risk management, or facility leadership.
Working knowledge of long-term care regulatory, licensing, documentation, and inspection processes.
Strong documentation, audit, reporting, and follow-up skills.
Demonstrated judgment, confidentiality, and escalation discipline.
Ability to work across multiple facilities and stakeholder groups.
Willingness and ability to travel to GEMHC facilities across Nova Scotia and complete short-term site placements (typically 1–4 weeks) as required.
Valid driver’s licence and reliable transportation

Preferred / Asset Qualifications

Experience in Nova Scotia long-term care.
Experience supporting licensing inspections or regulatory reviews.
Experience with quality improvement frameworks.
Experience developing policies, procedures, checklists, or audit tools.
Experience orienting or supporting new managers.
Clinical background and/or current registration with the Nova Scotia College of Nurses.

AUTHORITY & LIMITATIONS

This role provides quality, risk, compliance, audit, reporting, and facility-resource support. The role may identify risks, make recommendations, support corrective action planning, and track follow-up. Final authority for facility operations, clinical direction, employee discipline, budget approval, procurement, regulatory submissions, and policy approval rests with GEM Operations leadership and other designated leaders unless specifically delegated in writing. Other duties as assigned.
