Take a personalized approach. You recognize that each patient’s goals, experiences, and circumstances are different, and tailor your coaching to meet them where they are.

Believe in sustainable behavior change. You enjoy helping patients identify practical, achievable steps toward their goals across areas such as sleep, stress, nutrition, and movement.

Embrace collaboration. You value working with clinicians and other care team members to support a connected, patient-centered care experience.

Thrive in a virtual environment. You’re comfortable using digital tools to connect with patients, manage your work independently, and support engagement between visits.

Are adaptable and growth-oriented. You welcome feedback, continue building your coaching skills, and are interested in improving how care is delivered.

Believe in our mission. You’re motivated to improve women’s healthcare and help patients navigate conditions that may be complex or historically overlooked.

Your Impact as a Health Coach

As a Health Coach at Visana, you’ll play an important role in helping patients feel informed, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their health. Your work will complement clinical care by helping patients turn their goals and care plans into sustainable everyday practices.

  • Partnering with 25 to 30 patients a week to develop personalized health and wellness goals based on their needs, preferences, and priorities.
  • Supporting behavior change in areas such as sleep, stress management, nutrition, movement, and self-advocacy within the healthcare system.
  • Creating a patient-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive coaching experience.
  • Responding to patient questions and concerns in a timely, compassionate, and professional manner.
  • Collaborating with 100 clinicians and other care team members to align coaching with clinical recommendations and care plans.
  • Sharing relevant patient updates, progress, and concerns with providers through appropriate documentation and communication channels.
  • Using digital tools, including messaging, telehealth platforms, and tracking tools, to monitor progress and encourage ongoing engagement.
  • Following established coaching programs, protocols, care pathways, and documentation guidelines.
  • Accurately and promptly documenting patient encounters, goals, and progress.
  • Participating in coaching meetings, training, and feedback sessions, and contributing ideas to improve coaching materials, workflows, and programs.
