Ladder partners with pediatricians and community organizations to improve access and quality of care for families.

• License to practice in Massachusetts required
• Bilingual professional capabilities (English & Spanish) is preferred

Responsibilities:

• Perform virtual consult/evaluation appointments with children and their families and use clinical decision making to determine need for ongoing support. Thorough review of medical history, developmental concerns, and goals for seeking support.
• Document clinically sound, personalized care plans and recommend therapy frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly)
• Facilitate therapy appointments with child and their caregiver(s). Communicate clearly with caregivers and educate them on activities and exercises so they can work with their child at home.
• Maintain up-to-date patient records including appointment summaries, progress monitoring, and other documentation
• Utilize the platform to recommend exercises/activities that caregivers can apply in between appointments to work toward therapy goals
• Work to improve the platform including review of developmental screener and associated escalation logic, expansion of exercises library, and other enhancements
• Responsive to the messaging portal to answer questions from users on a predetermined cadence
• Collaborate with other clinicians to ensure children and their families are receiving holistic care.

Benefits:

• Chance to work at an innovative, early-stage digital health company, with room for growth and opportunities for advancement
• Flexible hours with the ability to work part-time
• Opportunity to mold a new care delivery model and help the access gap for children who need developmental services but are unable to receive them today
• Hourly salary commensurate with experience
