• Conduct in-home or virtual assessments for new clients, including a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment
• Develop a Plan of Care with the Director of Care Management, the client, and the family

Who You Are

We value substantial hands‑on experience over any single credential. Our team members come from many different backgrounds, and we've worked successfully with people from many fields. Backgrounds that often translate well include nursing, social work, counseling, psychology, gerontology, therapy (OT, PT, recreational), home health or home care management, senior living, healthcare administration, and nonprofit or community‑based aging services. These are examples, not requirements. If you have worked with older adults or other vulnerable populations and have the qualities below, we want to hear from you.

You likely have:

• 4 + years of experience working directly with older adults or other vulnerable populations
• Working knowledge of the senior care continuum: independent living, assisted living, home health, rehabilitation hospitals, skilled nursing, and aging in place
• Experience coordinating services and supporting families through complex situations

Preferred: home visit experience, in‑home service experience, and care coordination or case management experience.

Strengths that matter most: active listening, emotional intelligence, sound judgment, clear communication, strong professional boundaries, and the ability to work independently across multiple clients.

Location and Travel

Most of our clients are in Montgomery County, MD and Washington, DC, and candidates in those areas are preferred. We also welcome applicants from Frederick, Howard, and Prince George's Counties and Northern Virginia. You'll need reliable transportation and a willingness to travel to client homes and community locations. Much of the remaining work can be done from a home office.
