Registered Nurse | In-Home Patient Visits
About The Position
As an RN Visit Nurse with Home Health Care, Inc., your workday takes you throughout St. Paul and surrounding communities, providing skilled nursing care directly in patients' homes. One visit may be a patient recovering from major surgery. The next may be someone learning to manage a new diagnosis. Another may involve complex wound care, medication education, or recognizing a change in condition before it becomes an emergency. This role offers different patients, different homes, and different clinical challenges, providing a nursing career that keeps you moving. Home health is clinical nursing in a completely different environment where you assess the patient, evaluate the home environment, review medications, determine if the care plan is working, educate the patient and family, and recognize potential complications. For nurses who enjoy problem-solving, variety, and thinking on their feet, Visit Nursing can be an incredibly rewarding next step.
