Our Vision - As the premier provider of substance use and mental health services in the Pacific Northwest, we are respected and the most trusted resource for behavioral health treatment and whole-person care. We provide a comprehensive continuum of coordinated quality services, foster enduring relationships, and empower our communities to truly thrive.
Our Mission - Through superior customer service, high quality programs, and well-trained and dedicated staff, we inspire hope and support lifesaving changes for people affected by substance use and mental health conditions.
We are looking to hire an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner for our PACT program in the North Sound
This position is responsible for conducting psychiatric assessments, assessing physical health needs monthly, making appropriate referrals to community physicians, and managing and administrating medication monthly. This position provides clinical services to agency PACT patients.
MAJOR DUTIES:
- Provide patient service coordination, including participation with the individual treatment teams.
- Participate in and conduct parts of the patient-centered comprehensive assessment of psychiatric history (e.g., onset, course and effect of illness, past treatment and responses, and risk behaviors), mental status, and diagnosis; physical health and dental health; use of drugs or alcohol; education and employment; social development and functioning; activities of daily living (e.g., self-care, living situation, nutrition, money management); and family structure and relationships.
- Document patient progress in a permanent record of patient activity according to established methods and procedures.
- Participate in staff meetings and individual service planning review meetings.
- Take the lead role in providing psychiatric medication management and medical services.
- Manage pharmaceuticals and medical supplies.
- Coordinate, schedule, and administer medical assessments of patient physical health, making appropriate referrals to community physicians for further assessment and treatment, and coordinate psychiatric treatment with medical treatment.
- Provide ongoing assessment of patients’ mental illness symptoms and patients’ response to treatment. Make appropriate changes in service plans to ensure immediate and appropriate interventions are provided in response to changes in mental status or behavior that put patients at risk.
- Provide symptom education to enable patients to identify their mental health symptoms.
- Provide direct clinical services to patients on an individual, group, or family basis in the office and in community settings to teach behavioral symptom-management techniques to alleviate and manage symptoms not reduced by medication and to promote personal growth and development by assisting patients to adapt to and cope with internal and external stresses.
- Provide individual treatment in the office and in community settings in a stage-based treatment model that is non-confrontational, considers interactions of mental health and substance use, and has patient-determined goals.
- In coordination with the other registered nurses on the team, assist and support patients to have and effectively use a personal primary care physician, dentist, and other medical specialists as required.
- Must have a solid commitment to the right and ability of each person with a severe and persistent mental illness to live in ordinary community residences, work in market jobs, and have access to helpful, adequate, competent, and continuous support and services. Skills and competence to establish supportive trusting relationships with persons with severe and persistent mental illnesses and respect for patient rights and personal preferences in treatment are essential.
- In coordination with the Program Director and Team Lead, provide training to Lifeline employees regarding specific subject areas related to expertise.
- Support and implement agency policies and procedures.
- Other duties as assigned by the Regional Director and Team Lead.
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS REQUIRED BY THE POSITION:
