This position is fully remote, practicing in a non-traditional clinical setting where patient care and interaction are delivered over the telephone or via secure messaging. This position is led by a nurse supervisor, nurse manager, or other nursing leader. This nurse has a range of responsibilities that focus on providing patient care and support without being physically present in a healthcare facility. Some of the main responsibilities include management of medication refills, patient education, pre- and post-procedure/surgery care, patient results communication, and support for preventative care.
