Mass General Brigham relies on a wide range of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, tech experts, researchers, and systems analysts to advance our mission. As a not-for-profit, we support patient care, research, teaching, and community service, striving to provide exceptional care. We believe that high-performing teams drive groundbreaking medical discoveries and invite all applicants to join us and experience what it means to be part of Mass General Brigham.

The position to which you are applying is represented by a collective bargaining unit, Massachusetts Nurses Association.

Mass General Brigham’s Home Hospital is transforming acute care by bringing hospital-level services directly into the home. As a Virtual Registered Nurse (VRN), you will deliver high-quality, patient-centered care using advanced technology, remote patient monitoring, and a collaborative team-based model.

We provide hospital-level care for a diverse adult patient population, including those with:

• Acute medical conditions such as heart failure, COPD exacerbations, pneumonia, and cellulitis
• Dehydration requiring acute intervention
• Postpartum patients with hypertension

This full-time, 36‑hour on‑site role (7:00 am–7:00 pm) is based at our Logistics Command Center at Assembly Row in Somerville, MA—a high‑tech, innovative environment dedicated to ensuring safe, evidence-based care for Home Hospital patients.

You’ll also benefit from a self‑scheduling model, where nurses build their schedules 4–6 weeks in advance, ensuring work‑life balance and flexibility. Our RNs work every 3rd weekend, along with one of the three winter holidays and one of the summer holidays.

At MGB Home Hospital, you’ll be part of an innovative care model that is redefining how acute care is delivered across our system. You will work alongside a dynamic and collaborative team in our state‑of‑the‑art command center, where cutting‑edge technology supports every aspect of patient care. This role allows you to use advanced virtual tools to elevate patient outcomes while being supported by a system deeply committed to your professional development and nursing excellence.

• Provide medication education, assist with administration guidance, and coordinate with pharmacy teams.

• Collaborate with an interdisciplinary Home Hospital team to deliver timely, coordinated patient care.
• Support patients and families through communication, education, and remote care planning.
• Document all care in Epic in a timely and accurate manner.
• Manage incoming patient concerns and ensure appropriate follow‑up.

• Graduate of an accredited school of nursing; BSN preferred.
