A Remote Community Health Worker (CHW) is a trained professional who provides support, education, and resources to individuals and communities to improve health outcomes. Unlike traditional CHWs, remote CHWs work virtually via phone, video calls, or online platforms to connect with patients, provide health coaching, coordinate care, and assist with social services. They often serve as a bridge between healthcare providers and underserved populations, helping to address barriers to care. This role requires strong communication skills, cultural competency, and knowledge of community health issues.

You may spend time coordinating care by connecting clients to local services, maintaining detailed case notes in online systems, and collaborating with healthcare providers or social service agencies. While much of the work is self-directed, regular virtual team meetings ensure coordination and support. The flexibility of remote work allows you to manage your schedule while still making a meaningful impact in communities. This role requires effective time management and initiative to ensure all clients receive the support they need.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote community health worker?

To thrive as a Remote Community Health Worker, you need a background in public health, social work, or a related field, combined with strong knowledge of community resources and health education. Familiarity with telehealth platforms, digital documentation systems, and sometimes certification in community health work are typically required.

We deliver 24/7 virtual first and in home medical, behavioral, and social care, working alongside families, providers, and health plans to break down barriers to quality care.

What You'll Do
Note: The primary location for this role is remote in Chattanooga, TN, and will entail frequent travel throughout the area.
As part of the Patient Engagement Team, this role supports patients in re-engaging with Imagine Pediatrics services, ensuring they receive appropriate support by meeting them where they are. The role partners with an interdisciplinary team to address patient needs and enhance re-engagement of patients who were previously enrolled but did not complete onboarding or have not actively utilized services, ensuring they are supported in reconnecting with Imagine Pediatrics care. You will:
  • Serve as a community-based, patient-facing resource, building relationships with patients and caregivers through direct, in-person re-engagement in assigned geographic areas
  • Provide hands-on support to patients and caregivers, including assisting with program re-enrollment, onboarding, and mobile app setup and utilization
  • Preform telephonic outreach to caregivers of attributed patients to re-engage children in care, support seamless onboarding, and re-engage those who missed their initial onboarding visit or have not utilized services post-onboarding.
  • Educate patients and caregivers on Imagine Pediatric services and available community resources, ensuring they understand how to access care and support
  • Maintain and gather up-to-date knowledge of local community resources (e.g., social services, healthcare providers, SDOH supports) and connect families to appropriate services
  • Conduct community events and facility rounding to engage eligible patients, strengthen relationships, and support ongoing program participation
  • Partner with our Behavioral Health teams and local behavioral health providers to support safe patient discharge planning and ensure seamless connection to community-based resources and ongoing care.
  • Partner with caregivers, families, and facility staff to identify and address barriers to engagement, and access to care and work with leadership on ensuring workflows exist to enable access to care
  • Collaborate closely with the Patient Engagement Team (Outreach & Enrollment), including Outreach Specialists and Registered Nurses, to support patient re-engagement goals
  • Support non-clinical care coordination efforts in the community, including assisting with:
    • Connecting patients to primary care providers
    • Facilitating pharmacy access and medication-related needs
    • Providing basic discharge and follow-up support
    • Addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) needs
    • Removing barriers to care and service access
    • Support outreach efforts through outbound engagement calls, as needed, to assist with enrollment, follow-up, and achievement of patient engagement metrics

  • Ability to navigate ambiguity, think critically, take initiative, and stay organized
  • Ability to manage multiple tech platforms
  • Experience working in a patient-facing hospital or facility role
  • Experience working as part of an interdisciplinary team
  • National Community Health Worker Certification highly preferred.
  • Bilingual (Spanish) highly preferred

  • 401(k) with 4% match, vested 100% from day one
