In this role you will conduct thorough psychosocial assessments, coordinate comprehensive discharge planning, connect patients with essential community resources, and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to tailor care plans that honor preferences and promote dignity. You’ll advocate for vulnerable individuals facing complex illness trajectories, address social determinants of health, and provide crisis intervention and counseling when needed. Your impact will be measured not only by clinical outcomes but by the confidence you help restore in patients and families navigating transitions. This opportunity blends professional impact with the natural beauty and vibrant communities of California—an inspiring backdrop that invites exploration after a meaningful day of service. From the rolling hills of the Valley to nearby coastal escapes, California’s diverse landscapes enrich your daily work and fuel ongoing learning in a specialty that values resilience, empathy, and evidence-based practice. You’ll join a team that recognizes that great social work is the bridge between clinical care and holistic well-being, and you’ll be positioned to grow as a leader in patient advocacy and care coordination.
