Registered Nurse (RN) Lead

Lifekind Health is seeking an experienced and compassionate Registered Nurse Lead (RN) to oversee clinical operations and care management services within our Riverside clinic. This role combines hands-on patient care with clinical leadership, staff supervision, and oversight of Enhanced Care Management (ECM) and case management services.

The RN Lead will supervise and support Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs), Community Health Workers (CHWs), and Care Coordinators while also actively participating in patient care, care planning, and complex case management. This position is ideal for a strong clinical leader who is organized, collaborative, and knowledgeable in population health and ECM workflows.

Our mission is to bring care that’s whole, human, and healing. Blending medical, behavioral, and lifestyle support into a single plan because restoring life takes more than a prescription.

At Lifekind Health we strive every day to live up to that definition by providing the best care possible for our complex patient population. Our team of medical doctors, psychologists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and dietitians work together within a revolutionary transdisciplinary model that addresses the quadruple aim of healthcare: enhancing patient experience, improving patient health, reducing healthcare costs, and increasing employee satisfaction.
