You begin your morning by reviewing overnight alerts from biometric devices feeding into the centralized patient dashboard. After reviewing three flagged cases, you initiate follow-ups using asynchronous messaging, record your observations, and notify the physician where necessary. Next, you lead a virtual case huddle via secure video call, collaborating with behavioral health and pharmacy specialists. By mid-morning, you’re triaging incoming appointment requests while reviewing patient adherence metrics.
