About The Position

Davis Behavioral Health, Inc. is actively recruiting a full-time Case Manager to work in the Adult Mental Health program on the FAST (Community Outreach)/AOT (Involuntary Commitment) team.

The Case Manager utilizes the Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) model of care to bring hospital level of care and coordination to the client in the community. The case manager facilitates access to needed services, and advocates for clients' rights and dignity throughout their recovery process to reduce the frequency and duration of incarceration, hospitalization and county crisis services.
