Site: Mass General Brigham Home Care, Inc.
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.
Mass General Brigham’s Home Hospital program began in 2017, making us one of the largest and most established programs in the country. We bring acute, high-quality, compassionate, hospital-level care to patients in the comfort of their home while increasing hospital capacity and reducing total costs.
Our Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) play a vital role in this innovative care model, working at the top of their license within a highly collaborative, multidisciplinary team to provide comprehensive, patient-centered care supported by daily in-home and virtual visits, 24/7 remote monitoring, and advanced telehealth technology. APPs in Home Hospital manage a diverse range of acute and post-acute conditions while helping improve patient outcomes, enhancing care transitions, and redefining how high-quality hospital care is delivered.
APPs provide care to patients both in-person in their homes and through virtual visits—managing responsibilities such as placing orders, completing documentation (including progress notes, handoffs, and discharge preparation), billing, and maintaining consistent communication with patients and the interdisciplinary care team.
APPs will also work onsite at one of our partnering hospitals (including, but not limited to Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital, or Brigham and Women’s Hospital), collaborating closely with Nurse Navigators and Operations Coordinators to evaluate and admit appropriate patients from the Emergency Department or facilitate transfers from inpatient teams. Responsibilities in this setting include reviewing referrals, obtaining patient consent, placing orders, completing documentation, billing, and ensuring clear communication with patients and the care team to support safe transitions into the Home Hospital program.
We are seeking an experienced, flexible, full-time, 36 or 40-hour Advanced Practice Provider (Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant) to join our innovative team. This position is fundamentally a hybrid telehealth-based role with required local travel to patient homes for in-person care and to partnering hospital sites to support patient admissions and transitions into the Home Hospital program. Our APPs are scheduled for 12-hour shifts from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. It is a rotating schedule, inclusive of weekends and holidays. If you are passionate about making a meaningful impact and contributing to a team that values patient-centered care, we encourage you to apply to join our team.
