RN - Post-Acute Complex Care Nurse - BSN - AS Utilization Management - Walnut Creek - Part Time - 8 Hour - Days

Job Description:

The RN Post-Acute Complex Care Nurse plays a vital role in managing patient flow from Concord Medical Center (CMC) and Walnut Creek Medical Center (WCMC) to post-acute care settings, including Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs), Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs), board-and-care homes, and other lower levels of care. This position supports system-wide efforts to reduce hospital length of stay by ensuring timely transitions, leasing post-acute beds when needed, and helping patients access benefits and resources that support safe discharge and long-term success. The RN also plays a key role in ensuring that patients receive the right care, at the right time and place. The Complex Care Nurse has a relentless focus on excess day reduction and care transitions when patients do not require general acute care. This role is utilized for community members who require a higher level of case management than typical post-acute services, helping to manage demand across the care continuum.
