  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams including physicians, psychologists, social workers, and nursing staff to coordinate holistic patient care.
  • Provide psychotherapy and counseling services where applicable to support residents' mental health and coping strategies.
  • Participate in care plan meetings, quality improvement initiatives, and value-based care programs aimed at enhancing psychiatric outcomes and reducing hospital readmissions.
  • Educate residents, families, and facility staff on mental health conditions, treatment plans, and behavioral interventions.

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with patients, families, and healthcare team members.
  • Familiarity with electronic health records (EHR) systems and commitment to accurate clinical documentation.

Benefits
