What is a remote community health worker?

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.

What does a typical workday look like for a remote community health worker?

A typical day for a Remote Community Health Worker involves conducting outreach and follow-ups with clients via phone, video calls, or messaging platforms to assess health needs and provide education or resources. 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. Outstanding interpersonal skills, cultural competence, and self-motivation are crucial for engaging clients and working independently. These abilities enable you to effectively serve diverse populations, bridge gaps in care, and support clients remotely with empathy and professionalism.

Job description

Founded in 2020 and based in Silicon Valley, Empo Health is a seed-funded, VC-backed, and NSF-supported startup developing revolutionary in-home health monitoring products. We're assembling a contracted team of experienced Remote Patient Monitoring LPNs to provide clinical services to our partner health system and patients.
Empo Health's first product, the Empo Footprint, is an in-home imaging scale that helps doctors and patients monitor for early signs of diabetic foot ulcers. After running a successful pilot study with results that exceeded all expectations, the team is hard at work preparing the world-class device and associated Empo Remote Health Link service for launch in a few months. This is a hands-on role: you will monitor patient data and work with a supervising physician on the practice side, as well as an operations supervisor on the Empo side.
Your work will directly contribute to detecting the diabetic foot ulcers that impact millions of at-risk patients, potentially preventing amputations and saving lives. If you're passionate about remote care and helping prevent the worst outcomes for diabetic patients, then we'd love to hear from you!
The Job
This role will be a part-time contracted position with the opportunity to grow hours to near-full-time. LPNs will be contracted by Empo and managed by Empo, but will be assigned under the general supervision of patients' physicians to provide clinical services. The position will be fully-remote, and responsibilities will include:
  • Monitoring foot images and weight data collected by the Empo Footprint and displayed in the Empo Remote Health Link web portal daily. Escalating critical findings to the physicians and/or patients as necessary.
  • Conducting routine patient check-ins and adherence reminders, ensuring proper documentation is completed for each check-in. Check-ins will occur as frequently as once per month for a caseload of up to 50 patients initially.
  • Providing additional outreach to patients who have questions, experience changes in their health, or encounter issues with their Empo devices, ensuring timely resolution, support, and accurate documentation of all interactions.
  • Fielding questions from patients and delegating to other members of the Empo team as needed
  • Interacting with patients' physicians
You might be a good fit if you
  • Are accredited as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Virginia
  • Are based in the United States
  • Have experience with working with diabetic patients
  • Learn new clinical protocols quickly
  • Communicate well with both patients and providers
  • Have excellent English verbal and written communication skills
  • Are passionate about improving access to high quality healthcare
  • Are tech-savvy with strong proficiency in using various digital tools and software beyond Microsoft Office. You should be comfortable with tasks such as converting files (e.g., Word to PDF), using cloud-based software and online portals, downloading and installing apps, and uploading documents to web platforms.
  • Have an interest in learning new technologies
Even better if you
  • Have a compact license
  • Have experience working with diabetic foot complications
  • Have experience with remote patient monitoring or telehealth
  • Can communicate effectively verbally or in writing in other languages
  • Have clinical research / GCP experience
What We Offer
  • Remote-friendly working environment
Important Note
Promoting diversity of backgrounds is extremely important at Empo Health. Although we do our best to list everything we are looking for in a candidate, we may be missing skills and/or attributes that could make you a great fit for the role. If you think you might fit this role but don't perfectly match the description above, then please still apply! We would hate for both of us to miss out on a great opportunity.
