About The Position
The purpose of a Community Health Worker (CHW) is to act as the bridge between our patients, community, and medical systems in order to remove barriers and increase wellness across all life domains. A CHW is a patient's advocate or liaison, accompanying patients through proactive in-person (hospital or home) and telephonic outreach based on their care needs to promote health literacy and increase access to resources needed to live healthier lives. High levels of flexibility, problem solving, strong communication, and intimate knowledge of the community served are required to be successful. CHWs work closely with Case Managers to manage patient care plans, support care team decision making, and coordinate clinical and complementary services needed to provide high quality health care and improve the quality and cultural competence of service delivery. CHWs are expected to work within their scope of practice. There is no expected clinical license for this position.
