Remote Nursing Jobs at Thyme Care

OUR MISSION

We exist to create a more connected, compassionate, and confident experience for people with cancer and those who care for them. We make it easier to get answers, access high-quality care quickly, and feel supported throughout treatment and beyond.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Manager of Quality at Thyme Care , you will own the day-to-day operation and ongoing maturation of Thyme Care’s patient safety and clinical risk program as our care model and membership continue to grow.

You will ensure safety events are consistently identified, escalated, reviewed, remediated, tracked, and translated into meaningful improvements in care. Building on an established program foundation, you will strengthen workflows and controls, improve the reliability of event review and follow-through, identify trends and emerging risks, and help evolve the program toward a more mature model of structured review and prevention.

You will also serve as a clinical quality resource across broader Quality priorities to support NCQA accreditation, annual mock audits, HEDIS/Stars clinical quality gap closure. You will use your RN background to evaluate clinical evidence, data, identify gaps, support remediation, and help ensure Thyme Care’s quality programs are clinically rigorous and operationally sound.

This role requires both strong clinical judgment and strong operational instincts. You should be equally comfortable reviewing a complex patient event, facilitating a root cause analysis, improving an existing workflow, analyzing trends, and leading clinical and operational leaders toward sustainable improvements.

Reporting to the Director of Quality, you’ll partner closely with Clinical, Care Teams, Compliance, Partnership Operations, Product, and Care Delivery Operations.

• Identify gaps or friction in the program and recommend practical improvements to strengthen reliability, timeliness, and usability.

WHAT LEADS TO SUCCESS

Strong Clinical Judgment. You can assess complex clinical situations, distinguish safety concerns from expected variation, and know when and how to escalate.

Patient Safety Mindset. You approach events with curiosity and rigor, seeking to understand systems and contributing factors rather than simply identifying individual errors.

Structured Investigator. You can gather facts, synthesize clinical and operational information, identify root causes, document conclusions, and develop practical recommendations.

Member-First. You consistently connect processes, policies, investigations, and metrics back to the quality and safety of the member experience.

Calm Under Pressure. You can manage urgent or high-risk situations methodically, communicate clearly, and maintain appropriate confidentiality.
