Practice ManagerHealthcare Non-Clinical

NuvoAir Medical is a technology-enabled pulmonary care organization that powers the Dresden Family Clinic, focused on improving outcomes for patients with chronic respiratory diseases such as COPD, asthma, sleep apnea, and other complex pulmonary conditions. Our relationship-based model combines remote patient monitoring and proactive clinical engagement to keep patients healthier and out of the hospital. Complex conditions like COPD are incredibly challenging to manage. People who are already struggling with isolation and the burden of these conditions become increasingly frustrated and disengaged, eventually falling through the cracks and landing in the ER. This cycle perpetuates poor health outcomes and excessive medical costs.

At NuvoAir, we believe people deserve a better healthcare experience. Our team embraces the challenges that others can’t or won’t - by integrating our clinical team with technology, NuvoAir creates a highly empathetic and personalized experience for each patient.

Most importantly, they believe healthcare does not have to feel like traditional healthcare and bring the urgency, ownership, efficiency, and hospitality mindset needed to create an experience patients genuinely appreciate.

Building a diverse team is critical to our success:
At NuvoAir, building a diverse team isn't a lofty statement or goal, it's a necessity, and it's something we actively practice and talk about. We do not tolerate discrimination or harassment based on race, color, age, religion, sex, gender, disability status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other basis covered by appropriate law. NuvoAir will provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with documented disabilities.

What to expect:
Our team’s impact is felt globally as we help patients with cardiopulmonary diseases better understand and manage their health. Every member of our team adds value as we work towards a better healthcare experience for all. Because of this, it’s not enough that we hire mission-oriented people who are self motivated. We also need to grow a team that aligns with our company values (listed above!) and who will be successful in startup life… it’s not for everyone and that’s okay!
