The Virtually Integrated CareSM (VICSM) is a transformational model of care delivery offered by CommonSpirit Health that provides 24/7 virtual access to highly experienced RNs for patients and the bedside care team. With the VICSM program, the patient experience is enhanced and the interprofessional care providers are supported with time-consuming care activities such as charting, discharges, admissions, care coordination, and patient education (just to provide a few examples) leading to a reduction in nurse turnover, enhanced operational efficiency and unparalleled quality in patient care delivery. This is realized through a care delivery model that seamlessly integrates the virtual nurse as part of the interprofessional team. The virtually integrated careSM nurse is integral in facilitating the care delivery model.
As a Virtually Integrated CareSM RN at CommonSpirit Health, you will advance professional practice by providing vital support in a proactive manner to the interprofessional bedside team and the patient/family using virtual technology. You will significantly enhance the patient experience and ensure each patient receives the highest level of care. You will also positively impact the staff experience and improve morale by assisting with essential nursing functions to unburden the workload of the frontline care teams allowing more time with patients and families. You'll collaborate with interdisciplinary patient care teams, provide guidance and mentorship, and lead the plan of care to deliver exceptional outcomes for patients. Your exceptional communication skills, positive attitude, and knowledge of various diagnoses and situations ranging from minor to critical will be crucial to your success as a highly skilled resource for on-site patient care teams.
