PRN/RN Patient Trainer/Medical Device
About the position This is not a traditional RN role. This role is focused on training patients on how to use a medical device. The Patient Trainer will go into patients’ homes and train them on how to use INR (international normalized ratio, blood test) monitoring machines. Scheduling is very flexible and can be done anytime during the week. A typical training session takes about 1 hour. There is roughly 30 minutes of administrative paperwork to complete after each training session. The international normalized ratio (INR) blood test tells you how long it takes for your blood to clot. It is used to test clotting times in people taking warfarin (a medicine used to treat and prevent blood clots). Your doctor will use your INR result to work out what dose of warfarin you should take.
