What are the responsibilities and job description for the RN Case Manager position at BrightStar Care?
BrightStar Care is looking for a Registered Nurse Case Manager to provide clinical oversight for our homecare teams!
BrightStar Care is the industry leader in supportive home care and medical staffing. We make a difference in the way we provide care of our clients and our staff, fulfilling our mission of peace of mind. Our perfect candidate will be a self-driven, high-energy individual with an entrepreneurial spirit.
If you think you know Home Health Care, we are different. We are not certified with Medicare or Medicaid, which allows you to focus on the client and our staff, and not be bogged down with paperwork and complicated reporting. BrightStar Care is part of our multi-unit operation, providing high quality care for over 15 years. Quality of care is of utmost importance to us, as evidenced by the fact that we are Joint Commission accredited.
The Registered Nurse Case Manager will work with our Director of Nursing and Branch Manager to oversee the care provided to our clients. A typical day may include performing new client assessments, overseeing the care of existing clients (personal care and skilled), and care coordination with skilled service organizations and hospices. Compassion, patience and an outgoing personality are qualities that will build trust and a level of comfort with clients and their families. The Case Manager will work primarily (approximately 75%) in the field (local travel) and 25% of the time in the office.
