40 Hour South Team position. BWH/BWFH with flexibility to Newton Wellesley.

General Overview

The Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider (HH APP) will be part of a clinical team that provides acute-level care to patients in the comfort of their own home. The MGB Home Hospital (HH) is an innovative strategic program that aims to improve the care of patients while increasing hospital capacity and reducing total costs of care.

The Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider will support the work of Home Hospital by visiting (either in person or virtually) and managing patients in their home as a direct Home Hospital provider, supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes an attending physician (who oversees the direction of care for patients enrolled), a Home Hospital nurse, a paramedic (Mobile Integrated Health), an administrative coordinator, and other allied staff as needed (e.g. home health aide, physical therapist). Daily Home Hospital rounds for the Home Hospital APP consist of at least one daily visit (in-person initially, subsequent visits in-person or virtual depending on patient needs and circumstances), with medical decision-making and delivery of needed care as appropriate (see specific clinical duties below). The HH APP will facilitate continuity between care settings, ensure home care and acute care protocols are seamlessly integrated in the home settings, and function as a lead clinician in the home environment.

The ideal candidate for this HH APP role will be a patient-centered, proactive, flexible, and confident clinician comfortable with autonomy, multidisciplinary team collaborations, complex clinical decision-making, level-of-care triaging, and telemedicine. The role offers the potential to grow into a managerial/leadership position and/or the opportunity to broaden clinical duties.

  • Collaborates with multidisciplinary Home Hospital team members and patients’ longitudinal care team members around appropriate, safe, effective, equitable, and timely care delivery for Home Hospital patients.
  • Communicates with the patient and family about HH, incorporating patient and family values and goals in the plan of care.
  • Maintains a safe care environment for HH patients and leads in the practice of and reinforcement of a strong safety culture among all clinical partners involved.
  • Attends relevant team and other meetings related to Home Hospital and related work.
  • Participates with quality measurement and/or quality improvement initiatives, as appropriate, to advance the work of Home Hospital and other alternative care pathways, including advancements or innovations within the electronic health record.
