Job Description

myPlace Health is built around a simple but powerful belief: older adults deserve the support they need to live safely, independently, and with dignity in their own communities. As a PACE (Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly) organization backed by SCAN Group, myPlace Health brings together customized medical care, social activities, and daily support for participants and their families – all under one roof.

Our centers are more than healthcare facilities. They are vibrant community hubs where participants are known by name, valued, and supported as whole people. Behind that experience is a dedicated, interdisciplinary team working together to coordinate care, remove barriers, and improve quality of life for some of the most medically and socially complex populations.

For employees, myPlace Health offers the opportunity to do deeply meaningful work in a highly collaborative setting. Team members are encouraged to contribute innovative ideas, and grow alongside a mission that prioritizes compassion, respect, and impact. The result is a culture where people feel connected—to their colleagues, their participants, and the communities they serve.

At myPlace Health, work is more than a job. It’s a shared commitment to honoring what matters most.

The Master Level Social Worker (MSW) provides social work services to PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) participants and their families/caregivers.

The MSW maintains a caseload, completes psychosocial assessments and care planning, and partners closely with the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) to support participants in remaining safely and independently in their homes and communities. This is primarily a center-based role with occasional home and off-site visits.

Acting as a trusted liaison between the PACE program and participants, families, and caregivers, you’ll foster meaningful relationships that support seniors in continuing to live independently at home. If you’re driven to empower older adults to thrive within their communities, we’d love to have you on our team!
