This position is for a Registered Nurse who wants to continue using their clinical knowledge without providing direct or physical patient care.
The RN in this role completes in-home visits by talking with clients and families, review health history, and develop clear, practical care plans for non-medical in-home caregivers to follow. The work is focused on assessment, communication, and care planning—not clinical tasks.
What makes this role different
- No hands-on care
- No clinical procedures
- No lifting, transfers, bathing, or personal care
This role is centered on conversation, observation, documentation, and relationship-based support.
What you will be doing
- Travel to clients’ homes to complete scheduled, non-clinical nursing assessments
- Conduct verbal and observational assessments with clients and family members
- Review medical history, diagnoses, medications, functional abilities, and daily routines
- Identify risks, support needs, and appropriate non-medical services
- Develop and update individualized care plans for in-home caregivers to follow
- Serve as a clinical resource to the care team regarding the client’s plan of care
- Maintain accurate and timely documentation of assessments and care plans
The focus of each visit is understanding the client’s health background, functional needs, and personal goals in order to build a realistic and supportive care plan.
This position works well for nurses who:
- Want to step away from physically demanding clinical environments
- Prefer predictable, scheduled visits rather than shift-based floor work
- Value meaningful, one-on-one conversations with clients and families
- Enjoy care coordination, planning, and education
- Want to continue using nursing judgment without bedside responsibilities
Qualifications
- Active Registered Nurse (RN) license
- Ability to complete thorough verbal and observational assessments
- Strong documentation and care-planning skills
- Comfortable working independently in the community
- Professional, compassionate communication style with clients, families, and caregivers
