Description

Step Away from the Bedside. Reclaim Your Time. Impact Lives.

Office-Based BHH Nurse Care Manager (RN or LPN) – Part-Time or Full-Time Step away from the bedside. Reclaim your time. Impact lives.

Whether you are transitioning toward retirement, seeking a reset from high-stress hospital environments, or simply needing a predictable schedule for your family, this Office-Based BHH Nurse Care Manager role is your perfect landing spot. Leave behind the grueling 12-hour shifts, holiday mandates, and physical demands of bedside care. Instead, use your hard-earned clinical expertise to coordinate whole-person medical care, be a collaborative team member, and finally achieve true work-life balance.

The Role & Schedule

• Predictable Hours: Choose from part-time or full-time (20–40 hours per week) during standard Monday–Friday business hours.
• True Balance: Zero nights, zero weekends, no holidays, and no on-call demands.
• Collaborative Environment: Work daily alongside a multidisciplinary team—including a Clinical Lead, Case Managers, Peer Support Specialists, and Psychiatric Consultants—to support clients managing severe mental illness and complex physical health conditions.

Your Impact (Core Responsibilities)

• Medical Advocacy & Coordination: Track health outcomes, translate medical data into actionable interdisciplinary plans using our EHR, and occasionally attend local doctor appointments with clients to provide in-person advocacy.
• Clinical Mentorship: Serve as the primary medical resource for non-medical staff, providing vital health-literacy training and weaving physical health strategies into behavioral care plans.
• Consultative Care: Guide clients transitioning out of hospitals or emergency rooms to ensure safe, successful discharges and complete accurate medication reconciliations.
• Safety Advisory: Provide clinical guidance during crisis situations and advise AWS management on health, safety, and infectious disease protocols.
