Is this considered Triage Nursing?

I just had an interview at a place where they said that I will be on call with a pager, no contact with patients of any kind. I will answer my pager and if its a staff member calling with a medicine or clinical question I am to answer promptly or go to whatever place they are at and show them, for example say mary calls me and says how do I do the lung sounds and clean out a trache? I would have to go there and show Mary. Also do teaching on topics such as seizures, etc.Note this place is for disabled people who are trying to live independently. Does this type of nursing have a title? All I know is they want to hire me in as an LPN at this facility.

I do not know what the title for that would be (resource nurse maybe?), but it is not triage nursing. Triage nursing involves dealing with patients.
