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). Upon admission to Home Hospital a patient will have an in-person visit (this can be done in the hospital or in the home). Daily Home Hospital rounds for the Home Hospital APP consist of at least one daily visit (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.

Other clinical duties may include facilitating in-home diagnostics, point-of-care testing, administration of medications and other treatments, patient monitoring, clinical documentation, and other patient needs as they arise.

* 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.
