  • Welfare Oversight & Safety Monitoring: Continuously monitor patient care and progress, providing regular updates and ensuring follow-up care to safeguard patients' well-being.

  • Collaboration & Communication: Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to ensure the best possible care for patients. Maintain effective communication with patients, families, and healthcare professionals to improve patient outcomes.

  • Driving & Travel: Travel to patient homes and facilities as necessary to provide in-person care and manage the placement of patients into appropriate care settings.

Critical Success Factors:

  • Patient/Customer Satisfaction: Exceed national averages for publicly reported patient satisfaction by delivering exceptional, compassionate care.
  • Quality Outcomes: Dedicate efforts to achieving excellence in patient outcomes, particularly in direct admissions and service delivery.
  • Welfare Oversight: Actively monitor and update patients’ care plans, ensuring timely follow-ups and their continued safety throughout their care journey.

Essential Functions:

  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of company and community resources, processes, and services offered.
  • Transport patients to facilities as needed for admission and placement.
  • Recommend interventions and solutions for patients in crisis situations.
  • Complete direct admissions, ensuring a smooth entry into care services.
  • Provide oversight of patient care to ensure ongoing safety and appropriate care.
  • Assist with completing required documentation and paperwork for various healthcare services.
  • Support patients and caregivers in managing dementia-related challenges, offering guidance and resources.
  • Ensure patients have timely appointments with specialists and the company’s care teams.
  • Assist in enrolling patients into appropriate services such as home health, chronic care programs, and hospice when they qualify.
  • Advocate for patients who require assistance accessing resources and services.

Qualifications:

  • Education & Experience:

    • A Bachelor’s degree in Social Work or related field is required.
    • One to three (1-3) years of social services experience, preferably in a primary care provider setting or healthcare-related field.
