We are seeking a Registered Nurse Care Manager to join a dynamic, fast-paced start-up that is transforming the delivery of kidney care. This innovative care management position is designed for a self-starter who thrives in ambiguity and is passionate about driving change in chronic disease management. You will serve as a bridge between patients and their care teams, focusing on social and behavioral health to improve outcomes for those suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
This role is highly mobile and patient-centric. You will be driving to patients' homes within a two-hour travel radius to perform in-home care management visits. Your primary focus is to assess and impact the social and behavioral status of patients, rather than rendering direct clinical services. You will create and administer care plans, deliver education on living with chronic illness, and dialysis, and engage family and social support groups in the care process.
The position also involves significant telehealth components. You will take calls remotely on some nights and weekends, and occasionally after 5:00 pm. You will work closely with the Care Team and coordinate with dialysis providers to ensure seamless transitions of care. Additionally, you will act as a patient advocate, identifying and building relationships with local Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) to connect patients with appropriate resources.
