Registered Nurse - Onsite Inpatient Virtual Support FLEXI/PRN
About The Position
Sentara is hiring Registered Nurses for its Innovative Inpatient Care Model in the Centralized Virtual Acute Care Department. This is an onsite position at the Sentara Independence office in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and is not remote. The role is FLEXI/PRN with rotating shifts. Virtual nurses use technology to support bedside nurses and enhance hospital patient care. Working as an additional member of the care team—not as a replacement for bedside nurses—they handle administrative and educational tasks that do not require hands-on care. Patients communicate with virtual nurses through a HIPAA-compliant audio-visual device in their hospital rooms. The model is intended to improve workflow, reduce interruptions, enhance privacy and patient safety, and improve the experience of patients and nursing staff. The role provides nursing support via video call from the Virtual Care hub call center, including admissions, discharges, patient teaching, medication reconciliation, and other duties. Sentara describes the position as offering market-competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package.
