As the Infectious Disease Transition Services (IDTS) RN Navigator, you will be responsibilbe and accountable for patients receiving outpatient parenteral therapy (OPAT) or complex oral antimicrobial therapy, referred primarily by Infectious Disease physicians from inpatient services, emergency departments, and ambulatory clinics. You will coordinate care across the continuum for patients transitioning from acute and ambulatory settings to home infusion, infusion centers, or post-acute care environments. You will be instrumental in facilitating safe transitions of care and, whenever clinically appropriate, supporting patients to remain at home for antibiotic infusion therapy. You will also provide comprehensive care coordination, continuity, laboratory monitoring follow-up, patient assessment, education, and support for patients and their families throughout the duration of therapy.

Serving as the primary point of contact for patients, you will closely coordinate with Infectious Disease physicians, pharmacy services, home infusion providers, home health nursing, infusion centers, long term care facilities and laboratories. In collaboration with Infectious Disease physicians and pharmacists, you will support antimicrobial stewardship, ensure appropriate therapy selection and monitoring, and promote safe, effective medication management.

You will partner with hospital discharge teams and ambulatory providers to ensure timely initiation of therapy, adherence to treatment plans, and ongoing monitoring for adverse drug events, vascular access complications, and abnormal laboratory results. Through proactive care coordination and early intervention, you help reduce hospital length of stay, prevent readmissions, and optimize patient outcomes while enabling care in the most appropriate setting.

The RN Navigator provides care using the nursing process in accordance with standards of professional nursing practice and performs in the professional role as described by the American Nurses Association (ANA), engaging in activities related to ethics, education, evidence-based practice and research, quality improvement, leadership, collaboration, professional practice evaluation, resource utilization, environmental health, and patient advocacy.
