Who we are:
We are a young, growing company building a new model of specialty care to improve the experience and outcomes for patients undergoing surgical procedures. Our company is currently in stealth mode, but will be announcing the launch of our brand in the coming months. This is a great opportunity to have a hands-on impact on a growing company. We are a small team of highly experienced operational and clinical leaders who are experienced in launching new ventures and are experts in the healthcare arena.
For millions of people, the path before and after surgery can be confusing and riddled with to-dos, information, and educational materials that are confusing and overwhelming. Often this journey is lonely and frustrating for patients. That is where you, the health coach, comes in.
You'll have the opportunity to work on building a new model of care for a high-need patient population that is often forced to manage the surgical journey largely on their own. Your work will be valued by your colleagues, providers at hospitals, and most importantly by patients who will use this platform to better manage their perioperative experience with outstanding guidance, resources, and lifestyle change support to improve their quality of life.
Keys to your success:
- A growth mindset with a willingness to learn from and alongside all care team members
- A passion for patient-centered virtual first specialty care.
- The desire to be part of a multidisciplinary team dedicated to improving healthcare.
- The ability to communicate with and provide care to individuals of all backgrounds.
- An openness to feedback and reflection to gain productive insight and affect personal and professional growth.
- A flexible and adaptable work style and attitude that can change and grow as we do.

- Work as an integral part of a comprehensive and collaborative team, made up of medical providers, nurses, health coaches and ancillary services in order to provide holistic, comprehensive, patient-focused, quality, evidenced-based care.

- Other duties as assigned.
