About the job
Across the United States, 6 in 10 adults – or 133 million Americans, live with one or more chronic conditions. Chronic disease is today’s leading cause of death and disability in the US and the leading driver of the nation’s $4.1 trillion in annual healthcare costs. Patients who live with chronic conditions require far more touch points than our primary care physicians have time to deliver and the result is countless health emergencies and costly ER visits that could be prevented. Workforce shortages and lack of technologies make it difficult to give patients the attention they need.
At Cadence, our mission is to deliver life-changing care to over one million patients living with chronic disease by the end of the decade. We mitigate the impact of chronic disease by using technology and a world-class clinical team to remotely monitor, manage, and support patients at home. Together with our growing network of health system partners, we deliver guideline-directed care to tens of thousands of patients today while producing best-in-class clinical outcomes.
The Cadence Health team seeks a PRN Registered Nurse that will be responsible for appropriately monitoring and triaging patients based on vitals and alerts; supporting the management of patient treatment plans and medications in collaboration with Cadence NPs and the patient’s Physician.
The role of PRN staff is to provide relief when regularly scheduled staff take time off for scheduled vacation, sick leave, or CME.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:
For incoming calls after hours:
Respond to inbound patient clinical questions and escalations by phone (and/or text message).
Follow standardized triage protocols for incoming calls and escalate appropriately (e.g. Schmitt – Thompson clinical telephonic triage guidelines). This can range from directing the patient to their clinic after-hours call line for non-urgent needs to sending the patient to the ER and/or dialing 911 for emergencies.
Support clinical documentation for the patients’ Cadence care team (NP, RN, and Patient Success); including documenting patient case notes in the Cadence platform and logging tickets/follow-up tasks in ZenDesk (dedicated ZenDesk training provided).

Follow up with patients with abnormal readings to gather more information on their clinical status and triage appropriately.
Monitor patient vitals, symptoms, and labs to identify patients in need of clinical interventions and appropriate escalation.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
RN compact multi-state license, at least 1 additional state license either in CA, MI, IL, or AK, and a willingness to expand state licensure if needed as Cadence adds new markets.
3+ years of experience treating patients with chronic conditions including CHF, Hypertension, and/ or Diabetes patients either in an outpatient or inpatient setting.
