The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  UnitedHealth Group is hiring a Healthcare Administrator in Paterson, NJ.

• Role description

  Step into a Healthcare Administrator position at UnitedHealth Group, where patient safety and compassionate service guide every shift. Lay it bare: temporary Healthcare Administrator, $73,000 - $109,000, 5 years of Fall Prevention, and a seat where UnitedHealth Group decisions get shaped.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Keep the quality-obsessed pace of a busy Paterson ER without letting accuracy slip on any chart
  • Hold CPR Certification follow-up calls within 48 hours of discharge, catching problems while they're small
  • Wound care from assessment to dressing change, tracking healing across the full admission
  • Pre-chart the next admission from the referral packet so the room is ready when they roll in
  • Communicate clearly with patients, families, and care teams
  • Educate patients and families on diagnoses, treatments, and follow-up care
  • Pull the collaborative overnight shifts at Paterson, NJ that demand independent judgment without backup nearby

  What You'll Bring

  • Meticulous attention to detail across every deliverable
  • The composure to deliver bad news early and clearly
  • A growth mindset and openness to constructive feedback
  • Experience translating Medical Terminology complexity for a non-technical audience

  Ask anyone in Paterson about UnitedHealth Group and you'll hear the same thing: a fiercely-supportive crew that ships fast and sweats the CPR Certification details. You won't find performance theater here; we care what you shipped, not how busy you looked.

  What sits behind the $73,000 - $109,000 offer is an UnitedHealth Group culture built on real mentorship, generous benefits, and schedules that bend toward family.

  Newly timestamped, UnitedHealth Group keeps this mid-level opening on the active board.

  We're looking for the person who reads healthcare job posts and thinks I could fix that.
