About The Position
At Select Specialty Hospitals, a division of Select Medical, we care for chronically and critically ill or post-ICU patients who require extended hospital care. Our mission is to provide an exceptional patient care experience that promotes healing and recovery in a compassionate environment. Each employee plays a vital role in doing that by living our cultural behaviors - celebrating success, owning the future, being patient-centered, creating change, thinking first and building trust. The Clinical Liaison serves as an advocate for patients during the pre-admission process. Under the general direction of the Director of Business Development, you will work with all clinical teams and groups in evaluating both current and potential patients' statuses and medical needs. You will serve as a resource for the hospital and healthcare professionals and develop results-producing relationships throughout the medical facilities. Our hospitals offer a post-ICU plan of care that focuses on mobility, weight-bearing, ambulation, and nutrition - all crucial contributors to getting patients back to their baseline of health. Clinical Liaisons help hospitals in their local communities to identify post-ICU patients who have entered into a state of chronic critical illness and will benefit from this specialized extension of acute care. Armed with a strong clinical background, payer knowledge, and problem-solving skills, you'll work with physicians, discharge planners, and patients' families to plan the best continuum of care. You will perform clinical assessments of referred patients, then counsel with patients' families to assist them in making the best care decisions for their loved ones. Additionally, you will partner with hospital case managers to create smooth patient transfer processes and help remove payer-related and operational barriers to getting appropriate patients into this highly effective level of care. This is a salaried position that works Monday-Friday with periodic on-call responsibility.
