Job description

NuvoAir Medical is a technology-enabled pulmonary care organization that powers the Dresden Family Clinic, focused on improving outcomes for patients with chronic respiratory diseases such as COPD, asthma, sleep apnea, and other complex pulmonary conditions. Our relationship-based model combines remote patient monitoring and proactive clinical engagement to keep patients healthier and out of the hospital. Complex conditions like COPD are incredibly challenging to manage. People who are already struggling with isolation and the burden of these conditions become increasingly frustrated and disengaged, eventually falling through the cracks and landing in the ER. This cycle perpetuates poor health outcomes and excessive medical costs.
 
At NuvoAir, we believe people deserve a better healthcare experience. Our team embraces the challenges that others can't or won't - by integrating our clinical team with technology, NuvoAir creates a highly empathetic and personalized experience for each patient.
 
Living our Company Values
Patient obsessed: Every decision is made with our main focus in mind - improving the lives of patients
Act like an owner: Ownership means we speak up, share ideas, give feedback, and are all accountable for growth.
Focus on what matters: Creating meaningful solutions to challenging healthcare problems requires simplicity, clarity, and using our unique leverage
Build to learn: Failing courageously is a virtue that drives learning and stems from an innovative spirit
Practice confident humility: We aim to hold ourselves to the highest standards of humility, curiosity, transparency, and personal development
What you'll be responsible for: 
Provide outpatient pulmonary and primary care to adult patients with conditions such as COPD, asthma, chronic cough, and other respiratory disorders.
3-4 days in clinic & 1-2 virtual. 
Conduct patient evaluations, follow-up visits, and care coordination in collaboration with other providers. 
Review pulmonary diagnostics, including spirometry, PFTs, imaging (e.g., chest X-rays), and other relevant clinical data.
Manage treatment plans, medication adjustments, and patient education related to pulmonary disease management.
Collaborate with respiratory therapists, nurses, care coordinators, and clinical support staff.
Document care accurately and efficiently within the electronic health record.
Adhere to all clinical protocols, quality standards, and regulatory requirements.
 
This may be a fit if you have: 
Licensed in Tennessee.
Outstanding communication skills, including the ability to be personable and supportive of patients and a multidisciplinary team.
Experience providing telemedicine care to patients.
Experience providing culturally competent, patient centered care.
Ability to provide engaging and effective clinical training and mentorship for clinical and non-clinical teams.
Strong computer skills & competence with telemedicine tools & EMR documentation.
Tolerance or appetite for change and some degree of ambiguity that comes with working in a startup environment.
Building a diverse team is critical to our success:
At NuvoAir, building a diverse team isn't a lofty statement or goal, it's a necessity, and it's something we actively practice and talk about. We do not tolerate discrimination or harassment based on race, color, age, religion, sex, gender, disability status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other basis covered by appropriate law. NuvoAir will provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with documented disabilities.
 
What to expect from our interview process:
Our team's impact is felt globally as we help patients with cardiopulmonary diseases better understand and manage their health. Every member of our team adds value as we work towards a better healthcare experience for all. Because of this, it's not enough that we hire mission-oriented people who are self motivated. We also need to grow a team that aligns with our company values (listed above!) and who will be successful in startup life... it's not for everyone and that's okay!
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
