Telehealth Virtual Reality (VR) Nurse
Welcome to the Next Era of Care
Picture this: you sign in for the day, put on your VR headset, and suddenly you’re face-to-face with your patient—even though you’re both in different places. It’s not science fiction. We’re blending telehealth and virtual reality to make care personal, accessible, and deeply human for people who can’t come into a clinic.
What Makes This Role Special
This isn’t just about video calls. With VR, you step into immersive spaces—rehab rooms, calming therapy environments, and interactive exam areas—where you can connect in real time. You’ll read body language, share eye contact, and offer support just like you would in person. And yes, you can still stay cozy in your own space while you work.
What Your Days Might Look Like
No two days are alike here. You might start the morning helping someone do post-surgery exercises in a VR rehab program. Later, you could be coaching a patient with chronic pain through guided relaxation in a virtual nature setting.
Typical activities include:
- Virtual patient rounds: Jump into different VR rooms for scheduled check-ins.
- Follow-up care: Go over medication plans, check vitals via remote devices, and encourage healthy routines.
- Team catch-ups: Once a week, we meet online to share updates, solve tricky cases, and celebrate wins. (Like when a patient took their first unassisted steps—yes, tissues were involved.)
- Charting: Update records in our VR-integrated telehealth system.
Tools That Keep You Moving
We’ve set you up for success with:
- High-definition VR headsets
- Remote health monitoring devices (from smart cuffs to motion trackers)

What You Bring
We love skills, but we value heart just as much. You’re the nurse who:
- Spots what’s not being said, whether in tone or movement.
- Adapts quickly to new tools but keeps patient care at the center.
- Stays calm when tech misbehaves.
- Believes remote care can be just as personal as face-to-face.
Preferred background:
- Current RN license (multi-state is a bonus)
- At least two years in clinical care, ideally with some telehealth or home care experience
- Willingness to learn VR systems (training included)
- Clear communication and strong empathy
- Comfortable navigating apps and digital tools
A Story From the Virtual Floor
Jamie, one of our nurses, worked with a stroke patient who was losing motivation. Instead of another talk-through, Jamie opened a VR fishing game. The patient’s casting and reeling doubled as therapy, and they actually looked forward to every session.
