Field Social Worker - Hospice Under the general supervision of the Care Management Coordinator, the Medical Social Worker works in a team environment to collaborate, coordinate, and negotiate, to procure services and resources for acute care patients.  The Nurse Case Manager is the “team leader” and knows the plan for discharge of the patient’s in the case load/team. It is expected that the team will be able to decide based on patient’s needs and the skills of each discipline, who will be most appropriate to primarily intervene with the patient if both are not totally involved.

The Nurse Case Manager will monitor the clinical care. Communication between team members needs to occur at least daily and more often for the complex patient or plan. The Medical Social Worker is flexible in assignment and hours to meet the needs of the department.  The Medical Social Worker is on-site Monday through Friday and shares a weekend and holiday rotation with the Case Manager.
