Licensed Vocational Nurse (CA license required)
In the U.S., 60% of adults – more than 133 million people – live with at least one chronic condition. These patients need frequent, proactive support to stay healthy, yet our care system isn’t built for that level of attention. With rising clinician shortages, strained infrastructure, and reactive care models, patients too often end up in the ER or the hospital when those outcomes could have been prevented.
At Cadence, we’re building a better system. Our mission is to deliver proactive care to one million seniors by 2030. Our technology and clinical care team extend the reach of primary care providers and support patients every day at home. In partnership with leading health systems, Cadence consistently monitors tens of thousands of patients to improve outcomes, reduce costs, and help patients live longer, healthier lives.
The Cadence Health team is seeking a remote Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse (internally known as a Clinical Navigator) to provide virtual patient support across Cadence care programs. In this role, you will support Medicare patients living with chronic conditions by reinforcing care plans, encouraging adherence to medications and preventive care, and providing education that helps patients better manage their health.
Clinical Navigators deliver proactive, patient-centered outreach and follow-through. Depending on program needs, your work may include structured patient check-ins, coaching and goal-setting, care coordination to close gaps in care, and addressing barriers such as access to resources, transportation, or medication refills. You will document patient interactions in the Cadence platform and collaborate closely with the clinical team to escalate concerns, coordinate next steps to ensure patients feel supported, informed, and engaged throughout their care journey.
