The case manager must be self-motivated, organized, flexible, responsible, and empathetic. The HBPC nurse must possess excellent critical thinking skills and excellent nursing assessment skills. Recent geriatric medicine and recent home health experience are preferred. Experience in case management is preferred. The ability to work well with different people and personalities is essential.
