Job Description: Care Manager – Registered Nurse

Monogram Health is looking for skilled Registered Nurse eager for the opportunity to make a difference in patients' lives.

Your Impact:

As a Registered Nurse, you are an integral part of building trusting relationships with patients, so that they can experience a high quality of life at home. Work with a small panel of patients where you can directly experience the impact of your care. In healthcare systems, the patient has too often become secondary due to processes and incentives that don’t positively impact the patient for the long term. Here at Monogram, we strive to change that narrative by putting our patients and their quality of life at the forefront of what we do.

• Serve as the primary point of contact and be the first call when patients have questions (business hours)
• Provide education and coaching around medications, medical conditions, diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices
• Educate patients and facilitate conversations around proactive care decisions, especially relating to Advance Care Plans and ESRD treatment modalities
• Obtain vital signs when visiting patient and elevate any concerns to the provider
• Initiate patient relationships through enrolment and onboarding processes
• Perform post-op and hospital discharge visits to help patients through vulnerable transitions
• Review and document patient updates and progress in care management platform
• Coordinate with dialysis providers to ensure transitions of care are seamless

Position Requirements

• Frequent local travel to perform in-home visits
• Basic Life Support (BLS) certification is required in this role. The company will support your certification completion through onboarding
• Infrequent domestic travel may be required, primarily to Brentwood, TN for training
• Self-starter with the ability to work independently with minimal supervision

• Graduate of an accredited School of Nursing
• Currently licensed as a Registered Nurse in the State of the posted location
• 2+ years previous experience working in care management and/or with CKD/ESRD patients
• Ability to take call remotely on some nights and weekends
• Excellent verbal communication skills both in person and on the phone
• Familiarity with Microsoft Office and mobile phone and web-based applications
• Comprehensive Benefits - Medical, dental, and vision insurance, employee assistance program, employer-paid and voluntary life insurance, disability insurance, plus health and flexible spending accounts
• Financial & Retirement Support – Competitive compensation, 401k with employer match, and financial wellness resources
