Job description

Build meaningful relationships. Deliver exceptional care. Make every visit matter.

At RVNAhealth, our nurses do more than provide clinical care-they empower patients to heal, regain independence, and thrive in the comfort of their own homes. We're looking for compassionate, skilled Registered Nurse (RN) Case Managers to join our award-winning Home Health team throughout Fairfield and Litchfield Counties.

Whether you're looking to work in Northern, Central, or Southern Fairfield County, we'll match you with a territory that minimizes travel and allows you to care for patients close to home.

Our service areas include communities such as New Milford, Sherman, Newtown, Bethel, Brookfield, Ridgefield, Redding, Weston, Wilton, Westport, Norwalk, New Canaan, Darien, Stamford, Greenwich, and surrounding towns.

If you're seeking a career that offers autonomy, flexibility, strong clinical support, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact every day, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Do

As an RN Case Manager, you'll serve as the clinical leader for your patient caseload, coordinating care from admission through discharge while partnering with physicians, therapists, social workers, home health aides, and caregivers.

Patient Care & Case Management

• Complete Start of Care (SOC) visits, comprehensive assessments, and ongoing patient evaluations.
• Develop, implement, and manage individualized plans of care based on physician orders and patient goals.
• Provide skilled nursing care and case management for adult and geriatric patients in their homes.
• Monitor patient progress, identify changes in condition, communicate with providers, and adjust care plans as needed.
• Coordinate nursing, therapy, home health aide, and additional support services to ensure seamless, high-quality care.
• Educate patients and caregivers on diagnoses, medications, disease management, safety, and self-care to promote independence and reduce hospitalizations.
• Plan for successful discharge once goals have been achieved.

Clinical Excellence

• Maintain accurate, timely clinical documentation in accordance with Medicare, OASIS, and agency standards.
• Collaborate with physicians and the interdisciplinary care team to optimize patient outcomes.
• Participate in case conferences and quality improvement initiatives.
• Ensure compliance with all regulatory, infection prevention, HIPAA, and agency requirements.

What You'll Bring

• Graduate of an accredited School of Nursing.
• Current Connecticut RN license or Compact RN License.
• Minimum of one year of nursing experience.
• Home health and OASIS experience preferred, but we welcome nurses with strong acute care, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, or other relevant clinical backgrounds who are eager to learn.
• Excellent assessment, critical thinking, and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating with an interdisciplinary team.
• Experience with electronic medical records and mobile documentation.
• Valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and willingness to travel within an assigned territory.
