Provide post-cath recovery monitoring, cardiac procedure care coordination, and post-procedure patient education — from home.
Virelia Health connects cardiac catheterization lab registered nurses with opportunities across virtual cath lab support, telehealth cardiac procedure care, and remote post-cath recovery programs.
We are seeking qualified Virtual Cath Lab Nurses for remote opportunities supporting virtual cath lab programs, telehealth cardiac procedure companies, health systems, cardiovascular service lines, and digital cardiac care organizations.
A Remote Virtual Cath Lab Nurse provides post-cath recovery monitoring, cardiac procedure care coordination, and post-procedure patient education. Working within their state licensure and clinical scope of practice, the virtual cath lab nurse supports patients recovering from cardiac catheterization — monitoring access site status, assessing post-cath complications, interpreting cardiac rhythm data, and providing post-procedure education to patients and caregivers.
This position is well-suited to an experienced cath lab RN with interventional cardiology, cardiac procedural, or telehealth cardiac procedure experience who wants to practice in a virtual setting — providing meaningful cardiac procedure care with schedule flexibility and without the demands of a facility-based environment.
The specific virtual cath lab program, cardiac procedures covered, clinical model, and scope of responsibilities will depend on the employer and assignment.
This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for remote virtual cath lab nurse jobs, work-from-home cath lab nurse jobs, remote cardiac cath lab nurse jobs, virtual post-cath recovery RN, or telehealth cardiac procedure nurse roles.
Virtual cath lab nursing runs on scheduled post-cath follow-ups and patient outreach blocks, giving your clinical day predictability and structure. Programs typically offer daytime, evening, or weekend coverage to support recovery after cardiac procedures. Many programs offer flexible 8- or 10-hour shifts, and some RNs work 4-day compressed weeks or part-time schedules. There are no facility floor assignments, no radiation exposure, and no physical demands. We offer both full-time and part-time positions. Discuss your preferred schedule during your interview.
As a Remote Virtual Cath Lab Nurse, you may support cardiac procedure patients across a range of virtual cath lab encounters.
Virtual cath lab nursing is a growing area of cardiac procedure practice — driven by increased demand for post-procedure support, expanded telehealth coverage for cardiac care, and the recognition that cath lab nurses help cardiac patients recover safely after catheterization. Virtual cath lab nurses extend cardiac procedural care reach, improve post-cath outcomes, and support cardiac patients from recovery through discharge.
Depending on the program, virtual cath lab nursing may focus on:
The virtual cath lab nurse's role is to provide virtual cardiac procedure nursing within their licensure and scope of practice — including post-cath assessment, access site monitoring, cardiac rhythm interpretation, complication recognition, patient education, documentation, and appropriate clinical escalation. Clinical decisions, medication changes, and discharge decisions belong to the treating interventional cardiologist or cardiology provider; the virtual cath lab nurse supports the patient's post-cath recovery and coordinates with the cardiac procedure care team.
This structure keeps the role focused on post-cath recovery monitoring, access site assessment, patient education, documentation, and appropriate clinical escalation.
Effective virtual cath lab nursing depends on strong post-cath monitoring and cardiac procedure education — the RN's clinical judgment and cardiac expertise determine how to help each cardiac patient recover safely after catheterization.
Depending on the program and clinical focus, you may support patients by:
Clinical judgment, cardiac expertise, and clear communication are essential — virtual cath lab nurses are the RNs who help cardiac patients recover safely after catheterization and understand how to care for their access site and heart health at home.
A Remote Virtual Cath Lab Nurse may follow a structured workflow across each virtual cath lab encounter.
Depending on the employer's protocols, you may:
If a patient presents with clinical concerns during the virtual cath lab encounter — active bleeding, expanding hematoma, chest pain, arrhythmia, signs of retroperitoneal bleed, or a change in clinical status — the virtual cath lab nurse must follow the employer's clinical escalation protocol immediately, including contacting the interventional cardiologist, cardiology provider, or the appropriate clinical team. Virtual cath lab care does not replace emergency care or in-person post-cath monitoring when needed.
Experience or certification in any of the following may be beneficial:
A typical day may begin by reviewing your scheduled virtual cath lab patients — checking the cardiac procedure performed, access site used, post-procedure orders, and any concerns from the cath lab team.
You'll conduct virtual post-cath follow-ups — assessing post-procedure recovery, monitoring access site status, and reviewing cardiac rhythm data for any post-procedure concerns.
Between follow-ups, you'll support post-cath patient education — access site care, activity restrictions, and warning signs — and reinforce post-stent education including dual antiplatelet therapy adherence.
Throughout the day, you'll coordinate with interventional cardiologists, cath lab teams, and cardiology providers, document each virtual cath lab encounter accurately, and follow up with patients who may have post-cath concerns.
The role combines post-cath recovery monitoring, access site assessment, cardiac rhythm interpretation, patient education, documentation, and appropriate clinical escalation.
Unlike virtual critical care nursing, which focuses on ICU-level patients across multiple specialties, virtual cath lab nursing focuses specifically on cardiac catheterization procedural care — you're the cardiac procedural RN who helps patients recover safely after catheterization and understand how to care for their access site and heart health at home.
This position is designed for remote virtual cath lab delivery.
Depending on the employer, you may work with:
Candidates should have a stable internet connection suitable for real-time video, a private workspace suitable for confidential patient conversations, and comfort with multiple digital platforms.
