Weekend Case Manager Jobs in Raleigh, NC (NOW HIRING)

Weekend Float RN Case Manager

Full-Time Hospice Registered Nurse Weekend Coverage | Field-Based Clinical Role

Schedule: Saturday, Sunday and Monday 7:00am-7:30pm; one major and one minor or three minor holidays per year

This position is primarily conducted in the field, providing care to patients wherever they call home, including private residences, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities, and other care settings throughout our service area.

Unlike a traditional hospital or clinic-based nursing position, this role requires daily travel between patient locations, independent clinical decision-making, and the ability to build meaningful relationships with patients and families in their own environments.

If you thrive working independently, enjoy being on the move throughout the day, and value one-on-one patient care, this role offers the opportunity to practice nursing in its most personal and impactful setting.

Bring Your Expertise Where It's Needed Most

Some nurses thrive on variety. Others excel when faced with complex clinical situations that require confidence, adaptability, and leadership.

As a Weekend Float RN Case Manager, you'll have the opportunity to do both.

At Transitions LifeCare, we believe every individual deserves the quality of life they want when facing a serious illness or near life's end.
