Nurse Manager

Overview

WHAT YOU’LL DO

In September 2023, Converge was awarded a $3.9M federal grant to expand its programs into Tennessee. Reporting to the Tennessee Title X Director, the Nurse Manager will support the roll-out and ongoing delivery of the Title X program, provide clinical support to a network of 21 (and growing to 50) healthcare providers, and ultimately bring essential family planning healthcare to Tennessee residents.  Specifically, the Nurse Manager will:

• Use nursing skills and knowledge to provide clinical support to Converge’s network of Tennessee Title X-supported health clinics and providers (called sub-recipients) who receive funding and technical assistance from Converge.
• Become an expert on Title X and family planning in order to serve as an informed resource to sub-recipients and ensure they have the technical assistance and resources needed to provide high-quality family planning healthcare.
• Build relationships with clinical staff across Converge’s network, establishing rapport and trust through welcome and informal visits, regular communication, and suggestions for improvement.
• In partnership with the Tennessee Title X Director and Program Manager, conduct annual audits of all sub-recipients, inclusive of reviewing charts, electronic medical records, and all clinical activities associated with Title X federal grant requirements.
• Leverage Converge’s Mississippi-based Medical Director to share learnings and troubleshoot challenges as they arise.
• Support expansion efforts to expand Converge’s network of health clinics and providers, with a focus on growth in targeted areas.

• You are a reliable task manager with impeccable attention to detail. You have strong organizational skills and the ability to prioritize and work under deadlines. You strive to produce work that is meticulous, and nothing slips through the cracks. You are adept in using Microsoft Office and reviewing EMRs.
• You are an adaptable, agile, and self-led “doer.” You thrive in a fast-paced setting with the ability to solve problems and “figure things out” on the job. You are flexible, curious, and open to new ways of doing things.
