Case management nurses coordinate short- and long-term care for patients as a group. The goal of case management nursing is to oversee patient care to reduce hospital stay lengths and ensure quality follow-up care to prevent readmission. Travel positions for case managers entail working with specific groups of patients such as those diagnosed with HIV/AIDS or cancer and using a "population health approach." RNs in case management may choose to focus on certain age groups of patients or settle into pediatric or geriatric specialties. These RNs must possess the skills to research and understand the latest treatments and procedures, as well as be able to work with insurance companies to help patients receive the best and most affordable care.
