Qualifications:

  • Demonstrated understanding of patient-centered care

  • Experience working with vulnerable and culturally diverse populations

  • Familiarity with local community resources and willingness to research new ones

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills

  • Able to set and maintain professional boundaries

  • Critical thinking and problem-solving skills

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team

  • Working knowledge of Microsoft Office and comfort with technology

  • Valid driver's license and access to an insured, reliable vehicle

  • Commitment to maintaining confidentiality and following HIPAA regulations
