    In this predominantly clinical position, you'll lead a multidisciplinary team in providing daily care to marginalized individuals facing homelessness and addiction challenges.

    Your responsibilities will include comprehensive case management for 40-45 patients, collaborating closely with outpatient and community-based healthcare teams to enhance patients' health and social well-being.

    Critical thinking skills are essential, and you should thrive in a challenging and dynamic environment. Adaptability, forward-thinking, and creative problem-solving abilities are highly valued traits in this role. Since ACE operates as a teaching team, willingness to supervise and mentor students is essential.

    • Document actions taken in the care of the patient and communicate with other health care providers where appropriate
    • Refer the patient and the patient's caregiver to relevant agencies where appropriate

    • Identify behavior associated with increased health risks and take an active role in educating those at risk
    • Screen patients at risk for chronic diseases or for diagnostic purposes for early identification and referral
    • Engagement in the collaborative care of patients; this may include preparing status reports, attending meetings and/or rounds with various care teams involved in the patient's health management
    • Commitment to improving patient's quality of life and social determinants of health
    • Learning and applying sound knowledge of local community services/resources that the patient can access for support or basic needs
    • Treating patients in a non-judgemental way, including having a knowledge of and being a strong advocate
    • Clinical assessment skills and understanding of therapies used in the treatment of opioid dependence for harm reduction strategies
