Search & Comparison IntentPatient intake, initial assessmentsCare coordination, ongoing patient management

Remote Intake Nurses primarily handle patient assessments and initial data collection, often working in telehealth or healthcare settings. Remote Case Managers focus on coordinating ongoing care, managing patient plans, and working with insurance or healthcare organizations. While both roles require healthcare credentials and involve remote work, their responsibilities and focus areas differ significantly.

What is a Remote Intake Nurse?

A Remote Intake Nurse is a registered nurse who works remotely, typically via phone or online platforms, to assess and gather initial patient information before treatment or consultation. Their responsibilities include collecting medical histories, evaluating symptoms, determining the urgency of care needed, and directing patients to appropriate healthcare services. Remote intake nurses play a crucial role in triaging patients efficiently and ensuring they receive timely medical attention while working from a non-clinical setting such as home.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Intake Nurse, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Intake Nurse, you need a nursing degree, active RN licensure, and strong clinical assessment abilities. Familiarity with telehealth platforms, electronic health records (EHRs), and secure communication systems is essential. Exceptional communication, attention to detail, and self-motivation help you excel in virtual patient interactions and team collaboration. These skills ensure accurate patient triage, effective care coordination, and high-quality service in a remote healthcare environment.

How do Remote Intake Nurses typically collaborate with care teams while working offsite?

Remote Intake Nurses play a crucial role in coordinating patient care by gathering initial health information, triaging patient needs, and communicating essential details to physicians and other healthcare providers. They rely on secure digital platforms to document patient data, participate in virtual team meetings, and update care plans in real time. Effective communication and documentation are key, as Remote Intake Nurses often serve as the first point of contact, ensuring that the care team is well-informed and able to respond quickly to patient needs. This collaborative approach helps maintain high standards of care, even when working remotely.

Weekend Clinical Intake Coordinator (LVN / RN) 

Full-Time Role; Saturday - Sunday & Monday - Wednesday 

Office Locations: Burlingame · San Jose · Walnut Creek · Sacramento

 
 
About the Role

This is a unique opportunity for a clinically experienced LVN or RN to step into a high-impact operational role at the agency level. As our Weekend Clinical Intake Coordinator, you will serve as the central point of contact for our entire organization on Saturdays and Sundays, managing Kaiser referral intake, supporting field clinicians with clinical escalations, and ensuring our patients receive timely, seamless care coordination when our weekday leadership team is offline.

This role is ideal for a clinician with home health experience who thrives in a fast-paced, autonomous environment, communicates confidently with both clinical and operational partners, and can triage competing priorities with clarity and calm.

What You'll Do

Kaiser Referral Intake & Coordination

  • Serve as 21HHS's dedicated point of contact for Kaiser on weekends, managing all incoming referral requests and acceptance confirmations
  • Communicate directly with Kaiser representatives to confirm referral volumes, acceptance windows, and scheduling timelines
  • Ensure all referrals meet intake criteria and are entered and assigned accurately and on time
  • Track and manage Kaiser's weekend referral demands, ensuring the agency meets agreed-upon response expectations

Field Clinician Support & Schedule Management

  • Assist field nurses and clinicians with urgent patient reassignments and schedule gaps throughout the weekend
  • Triage incoming calls from the field, helping clinicians prioritize and navigate unexpected patient needs
  • Coordinate open capacity across the field team in real time, matching available clinicians to urgent patient needs
  • Serve as the first point of escalation for clinical questions, supporting staff in the same capacity a Clinical Supervisor would during the week

Clinical Escalation Management

  • Triage and respond to clinical escalation calls from field staff, patients, and Kaiser throughout the weekend
  • Apply clinical judgment to de-escalate, redirect, or elevate issues as appropriate
  • Maintain clear documentation of all escalations, actions taken, and outcomes

        • Support staff with questions about clinical protocols, patient care               scenarios, and next-step guidance

Why you Should Come Work for us:
  • Concierge for Case Managers: Dedicated resources assist with time consuming administrative tasks
  • Flexible work schedules: Create your own schedule and hours
  • Targeted territories. Typically patient visits are within a 5-15 mile radius.
  • Autonomy: No clocking in/out
  • Opportunity for advancement. We have multiple tiers for RNs including Admission Nurses, RNI, RNII, RNII as well as clinical leadership and support opportunities.
  • Low turnover/High morale
  • Work/life balance
  • Helpful software and communication tools
What We are Looking For
    • Active California LVN or RN license in good standing
    • Minimum 2 years of clinical experience; home health experience strongly preferred
    • Prior intake, scheduling, or care coordination experience preferred
    • Strong clinical triage skills — comfortable making judgment calls independently
    • Excellent verbal communication skills; confident and clear when speaking with Kaiser representatives, clinical staff, and leadership
    • Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple calls, tasks, and priorities simultaneously in a variable-volume environment
    • Comfortable with ambiguity — some weekends will be high-volume, others will be light
    • Proficiency with CareStitch, Kinser, or similar home health platforms preferred
    • Valid California driver's license with acceptable driving record
    • All licensure and certifications must be current at time of hire and maintained throughout employment
* You will be assigned a primary location; however, you may occasionally be asked to provide coverage outside of that area. This may include supporting vacancies, leaves of absence, higher patient census, or other client care needs. While 21st Century Home Health makes every effort to maintain your primary territory, temporary reassignments may be necessary to ensure safe, high-quality patient care and to meet the needs of our growing organization.
