RN Hospital / Emergency Department Nights

Home Hospital RN

Hospital Care at Home is an innovative care model that allows us to provide inpatient level care to patients in their homes. Potential patients are assessed by a Home Hospital provider to ensure their diagnosis can be treated in the home, that the patient's home environment is a safe place to receive care, and that the patient has consented to participate. We have successfully cared for more than 500 patients in Hospital Care at Home and are excited to continue to grow!
