Registered Nurse Care Manager

RN Care Manager

Office location: Tinton Falls, NJ

Full-Time | Salary : $42-$50/hour based on experience and qualifications

Elder Life Management, now part of the BAYADA family, is seeking a compassionate, adaptable, and clinically strong Registered Nurse (RN) Care Manage r to support older adults and their families in Tinton Falls, NJ with clients primarily in central jersey.

This is a unique opportunity for an RN who wants to use their clinical judgment in a more independent, relationship-driven role. As an RN Care Manager , you will work directly with older adults and their families to assess needs, develop individualized plans, coordinate services, advocate across settings, and help clients remain as safe, supported, and independent as possible.

This role is ideal for a nurse who enjoys meaningful one-on-one relationships, problem-solving, home visits, and guiding families through complex and changing situations. It is not a shift-based bedside role, and it is not a traditional office-based clinical manager role.

Meaningful autonomy with strong support from leadership
