hr hiring process??

im a c.n.a i had a interview with the DON at the skilled nursing facility and it went well she said would hire me... she said HR will call with the job offering next week .. so does that mean i got the job? how long does the hr hiring process take?
Although you have a 'verbal agreement' with the DON, it's not really official until you receive a formal offer from the HR department. They (HR) usually have to do a few things (background and reference check, etc.) before they contact you. If you don't hear anything after a week or so, I would advise you to contact the HR department. Hang in there!
