RN Case Manager - Neuro Expansion

Join Cleveland Clinic Neurological Institute and become part of one of the world’s most respected healthcare organizations. We are expanding with a new, one-million-square-foot, 15-floor, state-of-the-art facility on Cleveland Clinic Main Campus designed to elevate care for complex neurological conditions — including spine injuries, epileptic seizures, movement disorders, multiple sclerosis and stroke.  

This advanced building brings every stage of care under one roof, featuring dedicated spaces for outpatient services, surgery, stepdown, ICU and epilepsy monitoring, as well as additional operating rooms and expanded ambulatory, infusion, imaging, EMG, sleep and rehabilitation services. We are welcoming new caregivers to collaborate within our multidisciplinary teams and contribute to nationally recognized, innovative neurological care. Join us and be part of the next wave of transformative care at Cleveland Clinic.

In this role, you will apply your clinical expertise, critical thinking, and compassionate approach to advocate for patients and families while conducting holistic assessments, developing individualized care plans, and empowering patients to successfully self-manage their healthcare needs. Your work will play a vital role in promoting continuity of care, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring safe and effective transitions across healthcare settings.

This neuro-specific position will be embedded directly within the nursing units of the neuro building, providing close collaboration with physicians, nursing staff, therapists, and other care team members.
