About The Position

Why Join Grace at Home? Grace at Home is a provider-led, community-based health and care partner dedicated to improving the health and well-being of those who need care the most, with a deep commitment to high-needs, urban and rural communities. Our local physicians, nurses, and caregivers work together to serve people and the communities they live in, beyond just treating symptoms. We remove barriers by delivering personalized care as close to home as possible, often in-home, because we know a deep understanding of our patient’s race, culture, and environment is critical to delivering improved health outcomes. By empowering patients, providers, and caregivers with the support they need, we strive to make health and care a reality—not a burden—every single day. Join us in creating a better way to care. The Grace at Home program is designed to provide additional support to our patients by providing an integrated level of equitable value-based medical care and social support in the comfort of where our members call home. This program is offered to eligible health plan patients with the primary goal of mitigating adverse health complications, unmanaged disease progression and ultimately avoid unnecessary hospitalization that can occur when timely clinical interventions are not provided or are not accessible. In this role, you'll collaborate closely with a multi-disciplinary clinical team to deliver high-quality, personalized care in both a home-based and telehealth setting. The ideal candidate is committed to providing longitudinal care to build meaningful patient relationships, improving patient outcomes, and eager to make a meaningful impact in underserved communities.
