Master of Science in Nursing - Case Management Online Degree Information

With the growing complexities and costs of health care in the United States, the demand for nurses prepared as case managers is accelerating dramatically. Case management is the collaborative process of assessment, planning, facilitation and advocacy of patients’ options and services. Case management jobs are available in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, outpatient and rehabilitation centers, and in home health care.

The American Sentinel MSN specialization, case management, prepares students to be professional nurse case managers responsible for the advocacy of improving clinical outcomes. This is accomplished by effectively balancing efficiency, patient satisfaction and the cost of delivery. The program is ideal for nurses who want to start their own case management businesses. The specialization teaches nurses to deliver personalized services to patients to improve their care. The nursing leadership program focuses on understanding patient referrals, planning and delivery of care, evaluation of patient results, and the evaluation of overall program effectiveness.
