What is a telework RN?

Telework RNs, or telework registered nurses, are licensed nurses who provide healthcare services remotely, often from their own homes. They use telecommunication technology such as phone calls, video conferencing, and online platforms to assess patients, provide medical advice, triage symptoms, and coordinate care. Their roles may include telephone triage, patient education, case management, and follow-up care. Telework RNs play a vital role in expanding access to healthcare, especially for patients in rural or underserved areas. This position requires strong communication skills, clinical experience, and proficiency with digital health tools.
