    • Access to food and housing programs

    • Transportation coordination

    • Medication management and reminders

    • Appointment scheduling and follow-ups

    • Caregiver support and education

  • Collaborate with Sailor’s therapists, care coordinators, and tech platform to deliver seamless, person-centered care.

  • Provide feedback to help shape Sailor’s patient advocacy model as we scale.

What We’re Looking For

  • Registered Nurse license, active and in good standing

  • Experience working in healthcare advocacy or care navigation with Medicare populations

  • Familiarity with SDOH and how they affect patient outcomes

  • Clinical judgment balanced with empathy and problem-solving

  • Organized, communicative, and able to manage multiple patients and needs

  • Tech-savvy—you’re comfortable learning new systems and working remotely

  • Action-oriented and energized by building something new

  • Based in the U.S.

Why Join Sailor Health?

We’re redefining how older adults receive care—starting with therapy and growing into full-person support. You’ll help build a new kind of healthcare experience: more human, more accessible, and more effective.
