Remote LVN Care Coordinator

Job Overview

Virelia Health is connecting qualified healthcare professionals with opportunities across nursing, clinical care, telehealth, and healthcare operations.

We are seeking a Remote LVN Care Coordinator to support patients throughout their healthcare journey by helping organize services, coordinate follow-up, communicate with patients and care teams, and ensure important healthcare-related tasks are completed.

This role is particularly suited to an LVN who enjoys the organizational and patient-service side of healthcare. Rather than focusing primarily on bedside care, the Remote LVN Care Coordinator helps patients understand their next steps, coordinates appointments and referrals, follows up on outstanding needs, and keeps patient information accurately documented.

The position may involve communication with patients, providers, clinics, specialists, insurance-related contacts, and other members of the healthcare team.

This is a remote healthcare coordination opportunity available in multiple eligible U.S. states, subject to the licensing and geographic requirements of the specific assignment.

This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for remote LVN care coordinator jobs, remote LVN patient care coordinator, work-from-home LVN care coordinator, remote vocational nurse care coordination, or remote LVN healthcare navigation roles.

What You'll Do

As a Remote LVN Care Coordinator, you will help patients and healthcare teams stay connected and organized throughout the care process.

• Contact patients by telephone or approved digital communication channels to provide follow-up and coordination support.
• Help patients understand scheduled appointments, referrals, care instructions, and next steps.
• Coordinate appointments with providers, specialists, clinics, and other healthcare services.
• Follow up on referrals and help identify outstanding actions that may delay patient care.
• Communicate relevant patient information to appropriate members of the healthcare team.
• Monitor assigned coordination activities and maintain accurate records of completed and outstanding tasks.
• Document patient communications and coordination activities in the appropriate electronic health record or care-management system.
• Help patients navigate healthcare services and identify appropriate points of contact for questions or concerns.
• Conduct routine outreach to patients who require follow-up communication.
• Assist with identifying barriers that may prevent patients from completing recommended healthcare services.
• Escalate clinical or patient-safety concerns according to established procedures.
• Support care teams with administrative and clinical coordination tasks within the LVN/LPN scope of practice.
• Maintain professional communication with patients, providers, caregivers, and internal teams.
• Protect confidential patient information and follow applicable privacy and security requirements.
• Complete assigned coordination tasks within established timelines.
• Participate in team meetings, training, quality initiatives, and workflow improvement activities when required.

Patient Coordination Focus

The primary purpose of this position is to make healthcare services easier for patients to navigate.

You may help a patient move from one step of the healthcare process to another by:

For example, a patient may need help confirming an appointment, understanding where to go for a referred service, communicating an outstanding question to the appropriate healthcare team, or completing a follow-up step after a clinical encounter.

The LVN Care Coordinator helps keep these activities organized while recognizing situations that require escalation to an RN, provider, or other qualified professional.

Required Qualifications

• Current LPN or LVN license applicable to the position and work location.
• Nursing education appropriate for LPN/LVN practice.
• Previous healthcare, nursing, patient-support, or care-coordination experience.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to communicate professionally with patients and healthcare professionals.
• Comfortable using computers and electronic healthcare systems.
• Ability to accurately document patient interactions.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills.
• Ability to manage multiple patient-related tasks and follow established workflows.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Ability to recognize situations that require escalation.
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment.
• Reliable internet access and a suitable private workspace may be required depending on the assignment.

Preferred Qualifications

Skills & Competencies

Successful candidates may demonstrate strengths in:

A Typical Day

A typical day may begin by reviewing assigned patient coordination tasks and identifying appointments, referrals, follow-ups, or communications that require attention.

You may then contact patients, coordinate appointments, communicate with healthcare offices, update records, and follow up on previously identified needs.

Throughout the day, you may work with different members of a healthcare team to ensure information is routed to the appropriate person. When a situation falls outside your role or requires additional clinical judgment, you will follow the organization's escalation process.

The work can combine patient communication, healthcare navigation, documentation, scheduling, referral follow-up, and clinical coordination.

Remote Work Environment

This position is designed for remote healthcare coordination.

Depending on the specific employer assignment, remote LVN Care Coordinators may use:

Because the role involves patient information, candidates should be prepared to work from a professional environment where confidential information can be handled appropriately.

Applicants with an active LPN or LVN license, or an eligible multistate license where applicable, may apply.

Final eligibility depends on the states in which the employer's patients are located, the employer's requirements, and the licensing rules applicable to the specific position.

Candidates should verify that their license meets the requirements of the assignment before accepting a position.

Why Consider a Remote LVN Care Coordinator Role?

A remote LVN Care Coordinator position can be a strong option for licensed practical and vocational nurses who want to apply their healthcare knowledge in a coordination-focused environment.

Instead of concentrating exclusively on direct bedside responsibilities, the role allows qualified LVNs to use their clinical background while helping patients navigate appointments, referrals, follow-up services, documentation, and communication with healthcare teams.

Virelia Health's healthcare staffing focus includes nursing and clinical professionals as well as telehealth and other healthcare specialties.
