Job Overview
Founded in 2020 and based in Silicon Valley, Empo Health is a seed-funded, VC-backed, and NSF-supported startup developing revolutionary in-home health monitoring products. We are assembling a contracted team of experienced Remote Patient Monitoring LPNs to provide clinical services to our partner health system and patients.
Empo Health's first product, the Empo Footprint, is an in-home imaging scale that helps doctors and patients monitor for early signs of diabetic foot ulcers. After running a successful pilot study with results that exceeded all expectations, the team is preparing the device and the Empo Remote Health Link service for launch soon. This hands-on role involves monitoring patient data and working with a supervising physician and an operations supervisor.
Your work will help detect diabetic foot ulcers, potentially preventing amputations and saving lives. If passionate about remote care and preventing severe outcomes for diabetic patients, we would like to hear from you!
