The Disengagement and Discharge Specialist has a caseload comprised of members who are either designated as disengaged or are nearing their graduation from the care coordination program. The DDS attempts to reengage members of the Hope Care Management program who are in “diligent search/ pending status” while also disenrolling or graduating from Care Coordination services, after any amount of time. If a member is successfully re-engaged with the DDS, the DDS will update the care plan with any relevant goals and subsequently notify the Outreach and Systems Manager to transition the member back to the original assigned Care Manager or Patient Care Navigator, or original team of the assignment.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>Once a member is identified as nearing the graduation stage of care coordination services, the member will be transitioned to the DDS for the final 1-2 months of service provision. The DDS reviews the client's discharge plan, closes out their Care Plan, makes any necessary adjustments to the Comprehensive Assessment, sends out a full packet of information on existing providers, upcoming appointments and important numbers, and also provides information on re-enrollment. After all of these tasks are complete, the Disengagement and Discharge Specialist completes the appropriate forms to officially inform the client of their discharge and remove consent where necessary. The majority of the Discharge Coordination services are provided via travel, phone and email, from an office-based setting, although in-person meetings may be needed. This work is carried out in support of the mission and goals of Samaritan Daytop Village.</p>\n<h2>Responsibilities</h2>\n<p><strong>What You Will Do</strong></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Develops, adheres to, and documents daily schedule of interventions; informs supervisor of scheduling conflicts or changes and maintains accurate record of daily activities using the Outlook calendar resource.</li>\n <li>Completes the appropriate forms and additional paperwork to formally discharge a client from programming, and ensure revocation of consent wherever necessary, in accordance with policy.</li>\n <li>Edit or complete client centered comprehensive functional assessments, as needed, to identify the medical, behavioral health and social needs/goals of each client at the time of discharge.</li>\n <li>Review and update written/electronic person-centered care plans.
