Health Systems Navigator
3 months ago
The Health Systems Navigator will join one of the largest providers of services for
families experiencing homelessness in the Metro Boston Area. Founded in 1988,
Hildebrand is solely focused on families experiencing homelessness. Hildebrand’s
mission is to transition families out of homelessness to safe, affordable, permanent
housing while working to disrupt the systems that lead to poverty and homelessness.
Hildebrand operates 157 units of emergency shelter throughout the neighborhoods of
Boston and Cambridge and 22 units of affordable housing in four buildings, and an
array of services that include case management, housing search, and stabilization
services to ensure families remain stably housed. Hildebrand is a rapidly growing
organization with a staff of 60 employees and operates on a $9.1M budget.
Our vision is Every Family Has a Home.
SUMMARY:
Reporting to the Chief Program Officer, the Health Navigator (HSN) is an integral part of
Hildebrand's Management Team and is the subject matter expert for all health-related
matters for the clients and tenants of Hildebrand. The HSN will take a leadership role
within the Programs Department, helping to identify needs, improve client support
systems and support the overall department. The HSN will help families connect to
Community Health Centers and other resources that families can access while in shelter
and continue to access once they are stably housed. The HSN role aims to lessen
duplication of efforts in attempting to forge connections to community resources,
increase the ability to provide training on and develop expertise in system offerings, and
ultimately, improve family well-being. While health issues are the primary focus, the
Health Systems Navigator will develop expertise in other system offerings that intersect
with health-related issues. The HSN will balance high-level macro systems work and
collaboration with direct client support.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Respond to challenges in identifying available services and making effective
referrals – particularly for families with complex needs.
• Develop and maintain an approach and internal system for dealing with client’s
complex medical issues.
• Provide greater context to staff, including management and case management,

develop partnerships and collaborations leading to greater access, resources,
and training for Hildebrand clients and tenants.
• Coordinate client care plans with hospital social workers for complex client
medical issues.

health insurance, accessing its benefits, and clients are up to date on physicals
and immunizations.
• Ensure staff are trained in signing clients up for MassHealth and benefits and in
conjunction with program supervisors and managers, are tracking all relevant
health information.
• Act as a specially trained, on-demand connections expert who is knowledgeable
about service availability and eligibility and connects with key individuals in other
systems, including regional CoCs.
• Ensure the client board and ETO is up-to-date with the latest client information.
• Function as the organization’s ADA Coordinator for the purposes of HLC ADA
requests. Track and follow up on ADA requests and support clients directly if
additional ADA navigation is needed. Act as an intermediary between HLC and
staff regarding ADA concerns.
• Connect with new clients and/or homeless coordinators at intake to ensure new
housing placements accommodate individual ADA requirements.
• Address ADA needs across all of Hildebrand’s portfolio, including permanent
housing.
• Review and update Hildebrand’s permanent housing ADA and pet policies on an
annual basis.
• Review and update intake procedures for healthcare and ADA information.
• Lead the review and certification process for verifying disabling conditions for
permanent supportive housing disability status.
• Provide ADA support for stabilization clients, helping to inform landlords of
clients' accommodation needs and legal protections.
• Ensure clients are staying connected to their health services when transferring
internally or moving to a new permanent housing address by confirming clients’
MassHealth ACOs and health centers are still appropriate
• Ensure permanent housing follows ADA guidelines for tenants and provide
oversight to the tenant selection process around disabilities.
• Review all SIRs with health-related issues and develop preventative plans to
minimize the use of Emergency Services.
• Coordinate health-related workshops.
• Set up vaccination clinics with partners.
• Triage contagious disease situations alongside public health departments and
medical guidance.
• Provide support for permanent housing families with health-related questions and
needs.
• Ensure Program staff is up-to-date on First Aid CPR, and other client safety
training.
• Ensure all clients are provided with safe sleep information and program staff are
documenting safe sleep instructions with staff.
• Participate in 1 round of unit inspections annually with an eye on the health and
well-being of each family.
• Ensure Hildebrand is meeting the Health and Safety requirements for families in
shelter in line with the scope of services.
• Interface (virtually and on-site) with shelter staff and act as in-house consultants
and support systems to case managers, housing search and stabilization staff
who are struggling to help families navigate complex bureaucracies.
• Focus on the most complex or unique cases where standard case management
approaches are insufficient.
• In collaboration with the Education/Health Navigation Consultant, support and
mentor health-focused interns.
• Specific Health Navigator activities include (but are not limited to):
1. Aiding case managers in identifying available services and helping
navigate eligibility requirements, especially for families with particularly
complex needs, with the focus on making connections to permanent
services that can be maintained post-placement.

entities to ensure effective connections to services, including but not

and other resources alongside community-based organizations and
community health centers.

5. Help inform HLC ongoing work with Executive Office of Health and Human
Services (EOHHS) agencies and CoC’s by identifying areas where
