Eddy SeniorCare has a rewarding opportunity for Registered Nurse to work in our Latham Clinic!
PACE is a unique program on the forefront of trends in healthcare, combining an insurance role (we are the Medicare/Medicaid insurer for our participants) with a comprehensive healthcare provider role (primary care, home health, adult daycare, transportation, all coordinated by an interdisciplinary team). The focus of a PACE program is on the prevention of medical issues in order to allow the participants to safely stay living in the community.
As a Registered Nurse in our clinic, you will play a vital role in participant care, supporting our physician team and interacting with our Interdisciplinary team of nurses, social workers, therapists and dietitians. This position is ideal for a nurse who thrives in a team-oriented environment and enjoys working with aging adults.
Physicians in the PACE clinic average 3-6 visits per day, having at least 30 minutes for acute visits and 60-90 minutes for assessments! This is not a clinic or program that focuses on the number of participants that are seen in a day.
