About the role

This role brings your advanced clinical expertise beyond the walls of the hospital and into the home, where you can see the full picture.

You will practice at the top of your license—performing hands‑on assessments, independent IV access, medication administration, wound care, and splinting completely autonomously. Reporting to the Field Provider Manager, you will have the freedom to assess, decide, and act.

  • Improve Outcomes That Matter: Participate in quality initiatives that have a measurable impact, helping achieve a 49% reduction in hospital readmissions and a 97 NPS score.
