RN Patient Care Coordinator in Portland, Oregon at Portland, OR (Waterfront)

The Patient Care Coordinator (RN) will provide care coordination, assessment and triage, medication management and clinical support to the faculty providers in the ambulatory setting. Our bariatric program is a specialized field where the team nurse gets to know many of the patients closely and plays a key role in patient education and support. The nurse will become familiar over time with the various treatment options and ongoing care. The nurse will also perform medical record review, follow developed protocols, determine appropriate patient scheduling, assist with monitoring diagnostic results and patient care progress/processes as requested by providers, and participate in quality reviews.

Experience in the field of General or Bariatric surgery in an outpatient ambulatory clinical setting is preferred.
