Position Overview: The Virtual Nurse Practitioner (NP) provides medical oversight and telehealth assessments for patients receiving in-home care through Baseline Medical PC. Telehealth visits are conducted while a Registered Nurse is physically present in the patientโs home. The NP reviews RN-collected clinical data, performs virtual medical assessments, develops treatment plans, and provides medical decision-making and prescriptions in real time.
ย
This position operates on a scheduled availability model, rather than continuous visit volume. During assigned shifts, the Nurse Practitioner is compensated hourly for being available to support care and join telehealth visits as needed. Patient assessments occur intermittently and are compensated separately on a per-assessment basis. Patient volume is currently modest, with expected growth over time.
ย
This role is well suited for an experienced Nurse Practitioner who is comfortable practicing autonomously within a collaborative, hybrid virtualโin-home care model and values flexible, part-time virtual work with predictable base pay.
This role is a good fit if you:
- Are comfortable with an availability-based workflow
- Prefer thoughtful, quality-focused care over high-volume telehealth
- Are seeking flexible, part-time virtual work
- Enjoy collaborating closely with in-home nursing staff
