From arranging rehabilitation services and coordinating medical equipment to communicating with healthcare providers and visiting patient care units, you’ll play an important role in supporting patients and their families during a critical part of their healthcare journey.
This is not your typical desk job! You’ll be an active part of the hospital environment, collaborating with clinical teams across inpatient units while developing valuable skills in care coordination, healthcare operations, and patient services.
Why join our team?
- Gain invaluable firsthand exposure to inpatient healthcare and discharge planning.
- Build relationships with nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals.

- Enjoy a predictable schedule, planned well in advance, with flexibility surrounding weekend coverage.

Schedules are developed approximately three months in advance to support work-life balance.
The Case Management Resource Specialist (CMRS) supports RN Case Managers with hospital discharge planning. This is not a social work role, but a support position focused on coordinating patient transitions of care.
