Inpatient Care Manager

Job Summary:

Help patients navigate the challenges that can come with a hospital stay and make sure they have the support they need beyond the hospital.

Job Description:

As an Inpatient Care Manager, you'll work closely with patients, families, caregivers, providers, and our multidisciplinary care teams to identify barriers to care and connect patients with the resources and services they need. From admission through discharge, you'll help coordinate care, advocate for patients, and make sure the right plan is in place for a safe and successful transition home or to the next level of care.

What You'll Do

• Get to know the patient and their unique needs by completing assessments, identifying barriers to care, and working with patients and families to develop an appropriate plan.
• Coordinate care from admission through discharge, connecting patients with internal services, community resources, support programs, and other appropriate services.
• Work alongside an interdisciplinary team of providers, nurses, therapists, social workers, and other care professionals to evaluate patient needs and coordinate the right level of care.
• Help patients and families navigate what's next, including discharge planning, education, referrals, and resources that support a safe transition home or to another care setting.
• Review medical records and patient information to identify potential barriers, gaps in service, or concerns related to outcomes, satisfaction, compliance, cost, and reimbursement.

What We're Looking For

Candidates must hold an active Maine license in one of the following:

• Licensed Social Worker (LSW or LSX)
• Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW)
• Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
• Registered Nurse (RN)
• Physical Therapist (PT)
• Occupational Therapist (OT)
• Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)*

Certification as a Case Manager (CCM) through the Commission for Case Manager Certification (CCMC) or Accredited Case Manager (ACM) through the American Case Management Association (ACMA) is preferred.

Why This Role Matters

Every patient has a different set of circumstances outside the hospital. Your role is to look beyond the immediate medical need, understand what may stand in the way of a successful recovery, and bring the right people and resources together to help the patient move forward.
