Description
This position will be posted for a minimum of 5 days
The mission of the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is to work collaboratively toward the prevention of homelessness and the creation of lasting solutions for homeless and at-risk families, children, and individuals throughout Colorado. The Coalition advocates for and provides a continuum of housing and a variety of services to improve the health, well-being, and stability of those it serves.
Our Philosophy of Service: We believe all people have the right to adequate housing and health care. We work to remove the barriers that restrict access to these rights. Society benefits when adequate housing and health care are available to everyone. We create lasting solutions to homelessness by:
· Honoring the inherent dignity of those we serve, affirming their capabilities and fostering their hope that a better life is possible.
· Building strong, caring and trauma-informed communities through the integration of housing, health care and supportive services.
· Advocating for social and racial equity, inclusion and diversity, and challenging the status quo in partnership with our workforce members and those we serve.
· Achieving excellence through continuous quality assurance, innovation and professional development.
· Using resources judiciously and effectively.
Reporting directly to a Nurse Manager, this position will supervise Medical Assistants (MAs) and, with other interdisciplinary leaders, manage integrated health services in Recuperative Care. Responsibilities include support of direct reports, quality improvement efforts for clinical access, and participating in an integrated team for patients discharging from a hospital who are too frail to heal on the streets or in a shelter.
This will be done in accordance with current federal, state, and local standards, guidelines, and regulations governing CCH to ensure the highest quality of care is maintained at all times. This position is approximately 50% administrative and 50% skilled medical assistant care to the patients.
The primary work location is the Stout Street Recuperative Care Center, but may include Stout Street Health Center, home visits, community-based outreach, or other CCH integrated care sites as needed for collaboration needs.
We pay differentials for weekends, evenings, overnights, and holidays. Some weekend and holiday rotations will be required.
NOTE: In order to ensure that our consumers receive the best possible care the candidate chosen to fill this position will be required to complete our internal credentialing and privileging process prior to a start date. The credentialing and privileging timeline is dependent on the selected candidate's submission of documents necessary for clearance. Please note that a start date will be scheduled once credentialing and privileging is complete.
