What is an Interim ADON?

An Interim ADON, or Interim Assistant Director of Nursing, is a nursing professional who temporarily fills the Assistant Director of Nursing position within a healthcare facility. Their primary role is to support the Director of Nursing in overseeing nursing staff, ensuring quality patient care, and maintaining compliance with healthcare regulations during periods of transition. Interim ADONs are often brought in during leadership changes, staff shortages, or organizational restructuring. They help maintain stability and continuity in the nursing department until a permanent ADON is hired. This position requires strong leadership, clinical expertise, and adaptability.
