Are you an RN who thrives on solving the complex challenges of patient care? Community Physicians is looking for a dedicated Hospital Case Manager (RN) to join our Department of Transitions of Care.

In this vital role, you aren’t just processing paperwork; you are the primary architect of a patient’s recovery journey. You will act as the bridge between acute hospital care and post-acute settings, ensuring that our medically complex older adults transition safely, with dignity, and with the resources they need to avoid hospital readmission.

• Clinical Advocacy: Conduct comprehensive assessments to identify clinical, psychosocial, and financial barriers to a safe discharge.
• Resource Coordination: Arrange for essential post-acute services, including Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF), Home Health, Rehabilitation, and Hospice.
• Documentation Excellence: Maintain precise, real-time documentation within the EMR to ensure compliance with federal, state, and payer regulations.
• Family Support: Provide counseling and resource education to families navigating the complexities of elder care and chronic disease management.

• Education: BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) is required.
• Licensure: Active, unrestricted RN license in the State of Illinois.
• Experience: 3–5 years of experience in hospital discharge planning, case management, or a related post-acute care field.
• Knowledge Base: Strong familiarity with Medicare/Medicaid guidelines, payer systems, and community resources in the Winfield/DuPage County area.
• Soft Skills: Exceptional critical thinking and the ability to remain calm and organized in a fast-paced hospital environment.

• Purpose-Driven: Your work directly impacts the quality of life for the most vulnerable members of our community.
• Supportive Culture: We value interdisciplinary partnership and treat our staff with the same respect and dignity we show our patients.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Competitive salary with 401(k) + matching.
• Full Health, Dental, Vision, and HSA options.
• Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and referral programs.

Join a team that prioritizes clinical excellence and compassionate transitions. Help us redefine how older adults experience the continuum of care.
