Client Coordinator - Day Shift

Client Coordinator

The Client Coordinator is a part of multidisciplinary treatment team, guiding and directing patients through the discharge process via collaboration with the treatment team, patient, families, and outside referral sources. Discharge coordinators are skilled patient advocates who play a critical role in helping current patients develop continuing care plans by organizing an effective post-treatment strategy for patients to be successful in their recovery treatment plan.

The Client Coordinator will make certain that patients are adequately prepared for recovery after discharge from a continuum of possible services. Discharge coordinators evaluate patient needs, discuss their condition with clinicians, plan their homecoming or transfer and arrange any follow-ups needed. A Client Coordinator will require being people-oriented with excellent communication skills. Coordinators should have the speaking and listening abilities to understand clients' needs and collaborate with the treatment team on suitable discharge plans.

Strong organizational skills are imperative to properly record the facility and insurance documentation needed upon each patient's release. Discharge coordinators should have the time management skills to balance meetings with a number of clients and medical providers. Empathy, compassion, and friendliness are important to soothe individuals through the recovery process and ensure best chance of success.
