- Educate families on disease progression, caregiver strategies, safety planning, and available resources.
- Support care transitions and connect patients with community programs, entitlement resources, and support services.
- Assist with home safety evaluations and recommendations to support independent living.
- Deliver services in patients' residences and/or through telehealth based on individual needs.
- Maintain timely, accurate, and compliant clinical documentation.
Qualifications
- Active Texas Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) license.
- 3-5 years of experience in geriatric behavioral health, senior care, or related clinical settings.
- Strong understanding of Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and the impact of cognitive decline on patients and family systems.
- Experience providing counseling, psychosocial assessments, and care coordination.
- Comfortable working independently while collaborating with an interdisciplinary team.
- Ability to provide services in person, remotely, or through a hybrid model.
- Successful completion of required background screening and health clearances.
Why Join Us?

- Telehealth-friendly environment with local operational support.
