About The Position

Join a team that is redefining how acute care is delivered. As part of the Mass General Brigham Home Hospital program, you’ll provide hospital-level care directly in the patient’s home—offering comfort, dignity, and personalized attention while helping reduce hospital stays and improve outcomes. This role offers the best of both worlds: the autonomy of community-based nursing and the clinical challenge of caring for patients with acute, inpatient-level needs. You’ll work with a supportive interdisciplinary team and participate in innovative care models designed to improve access, quality, and patient experience. We provide hospital-level care for a diverse adult patient population, including those with: Acute medical conditions such as heart failure, COPD exacerbations, pneumonia, cellulitis, or dehydration; Post-ED or post-hospitalization needs requiring short-term, skilled monitoring; Infections requiring IV therapies, including antibiotics and fluid management; Chronic disease exacerbations needing rapid assessment and stabilization; Diagnostic follow-up, remote monitoring, and daily clinical oversight. You’ll deliver care traditionally provided in an inpatient setting—right in the patient’s home.
