Director of Nursing-$10,000 Sign on Bonus - Heartland Country Village

All Your Needs. All Our Hearts. 

Heartland Country Village located just 20 minutes from beautiful Madison, Wisconsin.  This is a very small and sweet facility (40 beds) that is truly a community based facility, catering to our local residents and patients who rely on us for life enrichment and quality of care. 

This is a perfect opportunity for a nurse leader who is looking to learn skilled and long term care; or for the one who wants to continue to be a part of skilled and long term care, but at a much slower pace than acute or post-acute care settings.  

We offer an array of employment opportunities for all types of professional interests. We offer competitive wages and benefits, tuition assistance and professional advancement programs. 

The community describes Heartland Country Village as “family”, and we’re honored to serve every one of our residents with the most compassionate care for over 45 years.
