Sometimes, you’ll interact with members leaving the hospital, possibly with new medications or diagnoses. Or perhaps you’ll perform home visits, assisting members with safe, effective transitions from care environments to where they live. You may also act as an intermediary between providers and members, serving in numerous roles, such as educator, evaluator, service coordinator, community resource researcher and more. The result? Fewer hospitalizations, ER visits and costly service gaps, and a less stressed, more effective health care system for us all.%3C/span%3E%3C/p%3E%3Cp style=%22-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:13.02px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;margin:0px 0px 12px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-decoration-color:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;%22%3E%3Cspan style=%22font-family:Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;font-size:10px;%22%3E%26nbsp;%3C/span%3E%3C/p%3E%3Cp style=%22-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Tahoma;font-size:13.02px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;margin:0px 0px 12px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-decoration-color:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;%22%3E%3Cspan style=%22background-color:white;font-family:Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;font-size:10px;%22%3EThis is a hybrid field-based position based in %3C/span%3E%3Cspan style=%22font-family:Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;font-size:10px;%22%3ESouthwest Virginia.
