Job Description

Psychiatrist (MD/DO) – Geriatric Behavioral Health & Clinical Supervision

Flexible Part-Time Role | Remote + Field-Based | Ventura County & Los Angeles

Strong preference for Psychiatrists based in Ventura County or Los Angeles, though qualified candidates from other locations will be considered.

Access Healthcare Associates (AHA), in partnership with Brigade Health, is seeking a Board-Certified or Board-Eligible Psychiatrist to support the behavioral health needs of older adults in assisted living, memory care, and senior living communities throughout Ventura County and Los Angeles.

Since 2007, AHA has been a pioneer in mobile senior-focused healthcare, delivering compassionate, patient-centered care directly to seniors where they live. This unique role combines psychiatric consultation, collaborative physician supervision, telemedicine support, and periodic in-person rounding, offering the opportunity to make a meaningful impact without the demands of a traditional high-volume practice.

What You'll Do

  • Serve as a collaborating and supervising Psychiatrist for Nurse Practitioners and other clinical providers.
  • Provide clinical consultation and support for complex geriatric behavioral health cases, including dementia-related behaviors, depression, anxiety, and psychotropic medication management.
  • Be available for provider questions, clinical guidance, and urgent telemedicine consultations as needed.
  • Conduct regular interdisciplinary case reviews and educational discussions with providers.
  • Participate in in-person rounding approximately one day per week alongside clinical team members across partner communities.
  • Evaluate a subset of patients directly through in-person visits and telepsychiatry consultations.

Maintain physician visibility and engagement across senior living communities throughout Ventura County and Los Angeles.

Contribute to program development, quality improvement initiatives, and clinical leadership opportunities.

Qualifications

  • Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively within interdisciplinary care teams.
  • Strong communication, leadership, and mentorship skills.
  • Comfort with both telemedicine and community-based clinical care.
