Goodwill Industries of South Central Ohio

Paint St., Chillicothe, OH, serving seven counties (Athens, Fayette, Hocking, Jackson, Pickaway, Pike, Ross, Vinton) since 1959. While widely known for its retail and workforce development operations, the organization also provides developmental disabilities programs requiring nursing oversight. The organization operates Activity and Training Centers and supports individuals in residential settings, with nursing services tied to Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities compliance. For nurses, Goodwill of South Central Ohio offers a contract-based Registered Nurse role rather than traditional employment. The RN is responsible for Medication Monitoring, Nursing Delegation to Direct Support Professionals, and Annual Nursing Reviews aligned with each individual's Individualized Service Plan (ISP). This is positioned as a flexible, independent opportunity suitable for an experienced nurse seeking autonomy rather than a structured clinical environment. The role does not involve acute care, bedside hospital nursing, or traditional clinical team structures; instead, it focuses on regulatory compliance, delegation oversight, and documentation across community-based settings.

Goodwill's mission centers on helping individuals with disabilities or barriers reach their goals and improve their quality of life. The organization's stated values include Respect, Integrity, Compassion, Stewardship, Learning, Teamwork, and Entrepreneurial Spirit. As a local community organization, Goodwill of South Central Ohio seeks to improve quality of life for persons served, staff, and their families, and to enrich partner organizations through education and training on cultural diversity and growth.
