  • Acting as primary communicator to TEC physicians and staff about the social service programs available in the community.
  • Interfacing with patients/families/caregivers social service needs at the skilled nursing homes, hospitals, home health and hospice agencies.
  • Demonstrating an excellent knowledge of community resources in Snohomish County and how to identify resources in neighboring counties and the United States.
  • Meeting with patients and families in their home environment.
  • Collaborating with the multidisciplinary care team across various settings including inpatient, emergency department, skilled nursing facilities, and home in implementing patient care plans.
  • Partnering with clinicians across settings, including PCT clinicians, hospital and SNF providers, specialty providers, and hospice in implementing patient care plans.
  • Supporting provider and staff competency in advanced care planning and palliative care communication, acting as a local resource for the teams
  • Intervening as a crisis counselor in situations requiring immediate psychological treatment.
  • Facilitating referrals for clinically indicated services outside of the organization (e.g., social services such as housing assistance, vocational rehabilitation, mental health specialty care, substance abuse treatment)
At The Everett Clinic/part of Optum you will experience:
  • Flexible work week schedule (4 or 5 day work week as 1.0 FTE, flexible FTEs are available)
  • Daily and weekly interdisciplinary huddles/rounds

  • Home visits
  • Family care conferences/shared visits with interdisciplinary team
