It's some case management of a sort, lots of autonomy, ongoing relationships with patients but enough distance to keep from burning out. Mostly a day job, most of the call is handled over the phone with a rare need to go in on a weekend (depending upon the program) to administer IP antibiotics. Most of the time the patients walk and talk and are fairly functional. It may serve your need for patient contact and involvement but take away most of the niggling irritations of case management. You can even do home visits but they are simple.Janethttp://pixelonepurltwo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
