About Sailor Health
Sailor Health is revolutionizing mental health care for older adults, addressing one of the fastest-growing and most underserved healthcare segments in America. With over 60 million seniors projected to represent nearly 25% of the population by 2030, we're facing a seismic shift in healthcare demand. Yet, today, millions of older adults remain isolated, underserved, and struggling with mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, and life transitions without adequate support.
Join us on our mission to redefine the golden years, enabling older adults across the nation to live happier and healthier lives. This isn't just a job—it's an opportunity to pioneer a movement in geriatric mental health and reshape the future of aging.
What You’ll Do
Build trusted relationships with older adults and their families, grounded in listening and empathy.
Serve as a go-to resource for navigating medical systems, social services, and emotional wellness needs.
Create individualized care plans that address both clinical needs and SDOH, such as:
Access to food and housing programs
Transportation coordination
Medication management and reminders
Appointment scheduling and follow-ups
Caregiver support and education
Collaborate with Sailor’s therapists, care coordinators, and tech platform to deliver seamless, person-centered care.
Provide feedback to help shape Sailor’s patient advocacy model as we scale.
What We’re Looking For
Registered Nurse license, active and in good standing
Experience working in healthcare advocacy or care navigation with Medicare populations
Familiarity with SDOH and how they affect patient outcomes
Clinical judgment balanced with empathy and problem-solving
Organized, communicative, and able to manage multiple patients and needs
Tech-savvy—you’re comfortable learning new systems and working remotely
Action-oriented and energized by building something new
Based in the U.S.
Why Join Sailor Health?
We’re redefining how older adults receive care—starting with therapy and growing into full-person support. You’ll help build a new kind of healthcare experience: more human, more accessible, and more effective.
What We Do
Sailor Health is on a mission to solve the mental health crisis among older adults. In the United States, older adults have the highest suicide rates of any age group yet receive the least mental health care. By 2030, over 65 million seniors will make up nearly a quarter of the U.S. population, creating one of the largest and most urgent challenges in healthcare.
Sailor is the first holistic mental health platform to serve the senior population. We have helped thousands of patients by pairing them digitally with our therapist-led care teams. Our AI-native platform powers seamless care coordination and real-time clinical insights, enabling providers to spend more time delivering compassionate care.
We are growing quickly and have partnered with Medicare to offer affordable and exceptional psychotherapy to hundreds of patients. We are honored to have the support and backing of world-class founders from Ramp, Nourish, Headway, Charlie Health, and Spring Health.
Why Work With Us
We are one of the fastest-moving teams in health tech: every person punches above their weight and owns meaningful work far beyond their title. We’re lucky to be backed by a tier 1 VC (unannounced) and the world-class founders of Ramp, Headway, Charlie Health, and Nourish.
