Your Impact (Core Responsibilities)
- Medical Advocacy & Coordination: Track health outcomes, translate medical data into actionable interdisciplinary plans using our EHR, and occasionally attend local doctor appointments with clients to provide in-person advocacy.
- Clinical Mentorship: Serve as the primary medical resource for non-medical staff, providing vital health-literacy training and weaving physical health strategies into behavioral care plans.
- Consultative Care: Guide clients transitioning out of hospitals or emergency rooms to ensure safe, successful discharges and complete accurate medication reconciliations.
- Safety Advisory: Provide clinical guidance during crisis situations and advise AWS management on health, safety, and infectious disease protocols.
