RN Field Visit Nurse | Home Health
About The Position
Your Nursing Career Doesn't Have to Stay Inside Four Walls. You became a nurse to care for people, not a room number, bed assignment, or a list of tasks. As an RN Visit Nurse, your patients get your individual attention. At Home Health Care, Inc., we're looking for an RN who wants to take their clinical skills into homes throughout the western metro and help patients recover, manage their health, and maintain their independence. One Patient at a Time Changes the Way You Nurse. Walk into the home. Sit down with your patient. Assess what's actually happening. Look at the medications they're really taking. See how they're managing their condition between appointments. Talk with the family member helping provide care. Notice the things that might never show up during a short office appointment. Then use your nursing judgment to determine what happens next. That's the advantage of providing care where your patients actually live. Your visits can help identify problems earlier, improve patient understanding, prevent complications, and keep someone safely at home instead of returning to the hospital. A Territory Built Around the Western Metro. You'll provide skilled nursing visits throughout communities in the western Twin Cities and Lake Minnetonka area, including areas such as: Minnetonka, Wayzata, Mound, Orono, Delano, Watertown, Victoria, Carver, and surrounding western communities. Rather than working inside the same building every day, your work takes you directly into the communities where your patients need you.
