  • Apply first-line interventions in a time-limited setting for a broad spectrum of physical and mental health problems experienced by patients and families throughout the lifespan, as presenting in primary care (pediatrics, Internal Medicine, and Family medicine populations) or Specialty Care (ob/gyn, dermatology, cardiology, etc.).
  • Provide patient and family education effectively and sensitively to encourage compliance with medical and behavioral treatment plans.
  • Effectively utilize electronic health records and verbal communication to concisely communicate relevant information to medical providers in a timely manner.
  • Ability to concurrently document during patient sessions, including performance of various clinical, compliance, and administrative duties required to meet various billing and medical documentation requirements.
  • Effectively assess for and manage suicidal and homicidal risk, as well as concerns for child or elder abuse and neglect, using effective and evidence-based methods (PHQ-9, Columbia Risk Assessment).

Basic Qualifications:

  • Experience: External Candidates must have a minimum two (2) years of post-graduate clinical experience within an integrated care delivery system primarily (51% or more of the time spent) providing care as described above.
  • Clinical experience must be within the past five (5) year(s) OR the applicant must have completed an integrated care training/course* within that same time-period.

Additional Requirements:

  • Demonstrate the ability to work in a fast-paced Primary Care or Specialty Care setting, requiring the ability to manage multiple competing demands, constantly re-prioritize, and succinctly communicate relevant information effectively to both patients and medical team members.
  • Demonstrate the ability to work effectively in an inter-disciplinary team.
  • Demonstrate current knowledge of cultural competency, particularly related to how variables related to socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and culture impact physical and emotional health.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Clinical experience within an integrated care delivery system.
  • Masters or Doctoral degree with emphasis in Integrated Care.
