Flex HR·Lake Forest, Illinois
The nurse will provide direct patient care, including phone triage, medication management, and clinical procedures like lab draws and EKGs. They will also collaborate with physicians to deliver coordinated care and educate patients on health plans.
This isn’t a typical nursing job. At Forward Focus, our physicians carry limited practice size— which means you’ll actually know your patients. You’ll see the same faces, follow care over time, and build the kind of relationships that make this work meaningful.
This nurse will operate as a floater between our North Suburb offices.
We’re looking for a nurse who brings both clinical skill and genuine warmth. Someone who is equally comfortable triaging a call, collaborating with a physician, and taking the extra moment to make a patient feel at ease. If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you.
