Nurse Coach – LPN/ LVN, Nationwide

Virta is an online specialty medical clinic that reverses type 2 diabetes safely and sustainably without the risks, costs, or side effects of medications or surgery. We also treat patients with pre-diabetes and obesity. Our innovations in the application of nutritional biochemistry, data science, and digital tools--combined with our clinical expertise--are shifting the diabetes treatment paradigm from management to reversal. Virta has developed a novel, team-based care model that delivers the Virta treatment exclusively through a telemedicine platform, with no brick-and-mortar clinics. Our clinical trial, which has already produced ten peer-reviewed publications, shows that the Virta treatment has lowered hemoglobin A1c values under the diabetes threshold while discontinuing diabetes medications. The American Diabetes Association has endorsed the core component of the Virta treatment, personalized carbohydrate restriction, as a first-line nutritional therapy for people with type 2 diabetes. We’ve been reversing diabetes for the last seven years, we see patients in all 50 states, and we are expanding our reach to patients with pre-diabetes and obesity. Our mission: Reverse type 2 diabetes and obesity in 1 Billion people. To achieve that mission, Virta is hiring RN’s to join our team.   We are hiring for fully virtual, full time roles with 8 hr shifts, although some shifts between the hours of 7am to 7pm, with one rotation weekend shift per quarter.   The Role: Virta is launching a service for a select group of patients to assist them with their weight loss goals leveraging Virta’s well established approach to obesity reversal as well as GLP-1 agonist medications. We are looking for a small number of RNs who live in a nursing compact state to help our physicians and nurse practitioners launch this service. The role requires experience with diabetes and obesity care and an innovator’s spirit, as this program is new, and we need problem solvers who are willing to help Virta build this program from the ground up. Some experience working in a non-traditional healthcare setting such as a health tech company or other innovative environment is essential to success in this role.   Responsibilities:
