About Us
One Medical is a primary care solution challenging the industry status quo by making quality care more affordable, accessible and enjoyable. But this isn’t your average doctor’s office. We’re on a mission to transform healthcare, which means improving the experience for everyone involved - from patients and providers to employers and health networks. Our seamless in-office and 24/7 virtual care services, on-site labs, and programs for preventive care, chronic care management, common illnesses and mental health concerns have been delighting people for the past fifteen years.
In February 2023 we marked a milestone when One Medical joined Amazon. Together, we look to deliver exceptional health care to more consumers, employers, care team members, and health networks to achieve better health outcomes.

About Us
One Medical Seniors is a network of primary care practices where we take the time to know our patients as true individuals, and proactively provide the care, support, and inspiration they need to live their best life. We created a high-impact relationship based care model that particularly benefits adults on Medicare and those who might need more attention. Our care model changes everything - the team, outcome-focused payment, customer service, and the technology that supports our care. Our practices offer smaller panel sizes, no billing or coding, and the opportunity to lead systemic change in health care delivery while working with a true team. One Medical Seniors wants to restore humanity to healthcare, for both patients and team members.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a full time Registered Nurse experienced in complex care / case management to join our One Medical at Home program within the High Risk Care Programs. This is a virtual/remote role and serves patients within multiple states/ markets. Candidates should live within a commuting distance of a Georgia One Medical At Home service areas as well as the Senior Health practices near Atlanta, GA.
The High Risk Care Coordinator will serve as a key member of the One Medical at Home team, playing a critical role with other members of the clinical team (providers, health coaches, Social Workers, Behavioral Health Specialists) to provide accessible, comprehensive, coordinated care based on longitudinal healing relationships. The Nurse's primary responsibilities center around the delivery of clinical nursing care, patient education, and achieving continuous excellence, through partnering with high risk/ complex care patients, their caregivers, and varied healthcare providers in managing chronic conditions and care transitions.
What You Will Work On
- Longitudinal Complex Care Management:
- Establish effective virtual, clinically engaged relationships, to proactively manage a panel of 150-300 patients with complex, chronic medical conditions to monitor for self-management, reinforce disease management, and identify early need for appropriate clinical intervention.
- Use patient centered communication skills and health behavior change strategies (e.g. Motivational Interviewing; action plans/SMART goals) to support patients and reduce the need for emergency care or acute care admissions
- Create patient-centered care plans and ensure all identified High Risk Patients have accurate and up-to-date nursing care plans, with clear next steps/follow-up outlined.

The RN demonstrates an ability to recognize health conditions requiring urgent intervention and comfort with communicating urgent needs to key team members.
- Possess excellent problem solving skills and an ability to overcome systematic hurdles in order to fulfill patient needs.
- Help to create and adjust daily schedule for High Risk Care Team based on patient clinical needs.
- Complex Case Management/ Transitions of Care:
- Collaborate with key external staff at the point a high risk patient is in a transition of care (i.e. outreach to CM, attend SNF rounds/care conferences when needed) to understand if the admission (and discharge) is on track and resolve any barriers to discharge.
- Perform timely and comprehensive post-discharge follow-up calls with patient/caregivers to address and resolve any post-discharge barriers and potential readmission factors.
- Coordinate necessary home and speciality care, such as home health, DME, IV infusion orders, advanced wound care, tube feeding, etc, as well as coordinate direct admissions to inpatient/SNF as needed.
- Build strong relationships with health systems, facilities, and post acute services (home health, hospice, etc.), including facilitating coordination and communication channels.
