non–face-to-face triage through phone and portal messaging. Your work with the
electronic health record and in‑basket system helps ensure smooth coordination,
accurate order management, and efficient surgical scheduling.
Your expertise, compassion, and presence make a real difference in the patient
experience. This role proves to be fulfilling work, and is supported by a team
that values communication, collaboration, and your overall well-being. Strong
interpersonal and communication skills, critical thinking abilities, and a
commitment to patient education are essential. The RN must be well-organized,
able to multitask effectively, and thrive in an autonomous yet collaborative
team environment.
