COMPANY PROFILE:
This organization is dedicated to delivering convenient, high-quality primary care to geriatric patients in the comfort of wherever they call home. They currently boast a team of more than 50 physicians and nurse practitioners who ensure that patients receive the best medical care possible without the challenges of traveling to a provider’s office. Their services include, among others, primary care, chronic care, psychiatric care, post-acute care, and transitional care.
POSITION DESCRIPTION:

Dedicated schedulers put together daily schedules / routes for the providers to ensure efficiency and appropriate time for every visit.
Specific duties of the role include, but are not limited to:
- conduct health assessments
- develop personalized care plans
- evaluate patient conditions and responses to treatment
- adjust treatment plans as necessary
- perform minor procedures and wound care as required and as settings permit
- educate patients and families on health management, disease prevention, etc.
- provide guidance on lifestyle modifications and self-care practices
- coordinate with nurse practitioners, nurses, and other healthcare professionals
The practice uses a mobile-based EHR with AI functionality to reduce administrative time.
On-call is phone triage only with very low volume and providers rotate the on-call responsibility, typically one (1) night per month.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Ohio medical license
- DEA
